Not sure what you mean by "$domain", but the DANE SNI *must* be the TLSA
base domain, which is typically the MX hostname (but sometimes its full
CNAME expansion). It is only the nexthop domain when the domain has no
MX records (implicit MX) or an explicit MX whose name is the domain itself.

Thus for:

    example.net. IN MX 0 smtp.example.net.
    smtp.example.net. IN A 192.0.2.1
    _25._tcp.smtp.example.net. IN TLSA 3 1 1 ...


the SNI value must be "smtp.example.net" not "example.net".
The SMTP server must not abort the handshake when it finds
no matching certificate, rather it must select some
appropriate default chain.
