Hi Kurt,

5.1. Locating the Target Host

can be read that MX records have preference, but it explizitly avoids
mentioning "A or AAAA" records if no MX is found. The sentence:

[...]
   If an empty list of MXs is returned,
   the address is treated as if it was associated with an implicit MX
   RR, with a preference of 0, pointing to that host.
[...]

implies a A/AAAA DNS query, but does not explicitly state so.

That section explains how to locate the target host. The section also has the following:

  'the "implicit MX" rule above applies only if there are no
   MX records present'
