Not really. so worldnet.att.net doesn't have an address record - it is
a domain after all, so it doesn't need one.

[localhost]$ nslookup -q=mx worldnet.att.net
Server: localhost
Address: 127.0.0.1

Non-authoritative answer:
preference = 5, mail exchanger = gateway2.worldnet.att.net
preference = 5, mail exchanger = gateway3.worldnet.att.net
preference = 5, mail exchanger = gateway4.worldnet.att.net
preference = 5, mail exchanger = gateway5.worldnet.att.net
preference = 5, mail exchanger = gateway1.worldnet.att.net

No surprises, and nothing wrong there...
