Well technically I'd say that the (invalid) MX *is* pointing to a domain
name, but that domain name does not exist.

There is no way an IP address can be in an MX record. There can just be
some (non-existent) domain, that *looks* *like* an IP address with an
additional point at the end.

For example: AFAIK "192.0.2.10." is a perfectly valid domain name, it is
just not present in the DNS.


Regards,
Matthias
