Well - if it was a POSITIVE test, THEN it would be called "IS IN MX" not "NOT IN MX".

Seems to me that this would add a LOT of false positives, especially from larger ISPs where the outgoing relay servers aren't necessarily the same as the incoming (the only ones listed in MX records) smtp servers. Time and testing will tell for sure, gut feeling tells me this is a positive weight test, but a very LIGHT positive weight.
