Wildcards?

I've seen one mention of wildcards in the QuickDNS manual but no further explanation.

Can QuickDNS be setup so that there are known addresses and then a wildcard address so that any unknown address is sent to the wildcard address? For example, a simple domain file:


samlewis.com ns ns.samlewis.com
samlewis.com mx 10 mail.samlewis.com
www.samlewis.com A 192.168.0.1
*.samlewis.com A 192.168.0.2


So that the domain acts normally for all "known" or defined addresses but say a request for "xyz.samlewis.com" comes in. Since it is unknown but a wildcard is setup it is directed to 192.168.0.2?

Is this correct or possible?

Thanks,
