RFC974 says:
Each MX matches a domain name with two pieces of data, a preference
value (an unsigned 16-bit integer), and the name of a host.
RFC1034 3.6 defines an MX record as follows:
MX a 16 bit preference value (lower is
better) followed by a host name willing
to act as a mail exchange for the owner
domain.
Note `host name' not `address' in all these cases.
