That's interesting. I think that if I put

mx_fail_domains = *
mx_domains = *

then the side effect would be I could never deliver to a destination
which has an A record but no MX record:

"messages addressed to a domain that matches the list but has no MX
record should be bounced immediately instead of being routed using the
address record"

Admittedly, that should be a pretty rare occurence these days.

Cheers,

Brian.
