As Mike's tech folks probably told him, having *one* MX record and 10 A
records associatd with it is a BAD idea.  Much better would be to have 10
MX records with the same priority level -- that would accomplish the same
thing in a MUCH more transportable way, and at the nameserver level, not at
the resolver level.
 
However, that's not list-owner related at all, so follow-ups directly to
me, please...
