This is probably a bad idea.  But I'll ask anyway...

We host our own mail server. This has extensive spam protection which works reasonably well. In addition to our other tests I also make use of "Project Tarbaby" - which provides a set of backup MX servers as honeypots. Properly configured servers shouldn't hit these. I said "properly configured" and "shouldn't".

We also use a fax-to-email service. Recently, they started using our backup MX servers - I still don't know why. However, since I don't administer their systems I can't fix that end. But as for ours...my choices are either to drop the honeypot backup MX servers (which I know many admins will recommend) or find another way. I was thinking that I could setup a script that would only give the primary MX to designated requestors. But I'd like to do that based on domain-name lookups instead of hard-coding their IP's. Is this possible?
