Yes, this is a strange one. The 127.0.0.1 should not be in the MX (although it is and
we need to deal with it). I'll talk to a few
people here about a resolution (I think that the logical thing would be to weed out MX
records that have non-routable addresses).
I'll reply to this as soon as I have more information.
Regards,
Howie
