Keep in mind that the hosts listed as MX for any particular domain, may
have nothing do to with the SMTP relays used by individuals with
mailboxes in that domain to send out mail. Sometimes relays are used
for tons of domains, for backup MX, or outbound relay. There really
isnt any easy way to corrospond a recipient domain, with the SMTP relay
that that recipient will use when they are a sender. Given this, your
idea, while perhaps a good one, really won't work.
