You don't set up MX records for servers, you set them up for domains. If your outgoing mail is MAIL FROM: @mail2.abc.com, then yes, you must have an MX record for mail2.abc.com to avoid rejection by anti-spam measures. But if you're sending the MAIL FROM: @mail.abc.com, you already have an MX record, and no questions should be asked. In either case, you should have the A, HELO, PTR, and SMTP banner as tidy as possible for your new outbound relay host.
