According to

"
This Internet-Draft has been deleted. Unrevised documents placed in the
Internet-Drafts directories have a maximum life of six months. After
that time, they are deleted. This Internet-Draft was not published as
an RFC.

The name of the internet-draft was draft-stout-antispam-00.txt

...
"

so it's expired. dead. 

on the other hand, checking the MX may be used in zombie detection: if client
looks dynamic, but it is the MX of the sender domain, then reduce the score (if
it was increased due to *DYN* and *DHCP* ... rules). of course, this can be
abused by spammers...
