Yes, it does. It shows that IMail went to 66.33.28.206, and the (2) shows
that it couldn't connect with the first server(s) that it tried.

Their MX record is:
siliconoptix.com. MX 10 mail.siliconoptix.com.
mail.siliconoptix.com. A 216.191.144.131
so, IMail should go to 216.191.144.131, and only try sending to
216.191.144.133.
However, a bug in previous versions of IMail would also try the A record in
a case like this (it should normally only try the A record if the MX record
doesn't exist). The A record is:
siliconoptix.com. A 66.33.28.206
So, that's where IMail is getting 66.33.28.206 from.
This issue (going to the A record when it shouldn't) is fixed in the latest
versions of IMail (I don't recall which version it was fixed in).
