Technically it's an invalid MX record because MX records must point to a hostname, not an IP address.

They are probably trying (but failing) to implement a null MX record:

Note there is also RFC 7505 "Null MX" where you simply add "IN MX 0 ." to
any DNS name you wish not to send or accept e-mail. (this is designed to
work around implicie MX records when A record is present).



I saw some domains have MX pointing to 127.0.0.1. what does this mean?

Thanks.
