I've used it already today. Was troubleshooting a VPN which is pointing to a dynamic dns address, and to check the HQ device was resolving the address to the correct IP I did a quick nslookup and found out it wasn't, and went from there.

Problems with email usually involve nslookup with the type set to mx to query mx record for a domain. Similarly the other records for the domain can be queried.

As said, can be used to check DNS connectivity too.

It's a helpful tool.
