Apparently this didnt go through, but it illustrates the problem better.
Hopefully the administrator of that domain/system somehow gets messages
posted to the list, so they can fix this.

This is ancillary to his original question, which was about MX records
pointing at hosts with only AAAA records - that is fine, but in this
case it appears the secondary MX (mail.open-systems.org) (with a regular
A record), is misconfigured - in that it will not relay mail for the
domain for which it is listed as an MX.
