That's  why/where  you  use  a  bridgehead  peer as your MX whose only
function is to route incoming mail from the outside.

The  feasibility  of  peering  in  a  best-practices implementation is
limited primarily by the amount of inter-peer traffic in proportion to
the  bandwidth  of  the  inter-peer  links.  Incoming traffic from the
public  Internet  should  not  be a major factor, since that should be
routed directly from central bridgehead(s) after VRFY probes.
