John,

Yea, strike the MX record comment.

Heroku used to be CName based, which proved tricky for MX records on a root 
level domain.
They have since given us ip addresses, so we can do A records, so it is no 
longer an issue.

Thanks again awesome Heroku crew for fixing this so we can do all sorts of 
wonderful stuff with your domain.
