Club reps are required to read the [Club Hosting](https://wiki.csclub.uwaterloo.ca/Club_Hosting) page on the CSC Wiki when they first become a club rep, and thereafter at least once every term, and abide by any notices, warnings, recommendations and best practices provided on it.

DNS is something you can google and figure out, but MUA is not, so I think it's especially important to be clear what we're talking about here.I agree - MUA is a commonly used acronym for "mail user agent". It doesn't make sense in this context, but still. We can also say something like "the rules within this document".
