The /dns command resolves an address. If mIRC sees a "." in the name you specify it assumes it is an address and tries to resolve it. Otherwise it assumes it is a nickname and performs a /userhost to find the user's address and then resolves it. If you specify an IP address, it looks up the host name. You can queue multiple /dns requests, and you can view the current queue by using /dns with no parameters.
Synopsis
/dns [-46ch] [nick|address]

- -6 - allows IPv6 results to be returned
- -c - clears all currently queued DNS requests, except for the one currently in progress
