Hmm, AFAIK not really, as long as the destination host name has an
A record; i.e. if I do something like:

somehost.domain.com  MX  otherhost.domain.com
otherhost.domain.com A   123.123.123.123

somehost.domain.com  ends  up  having  no A record, but is still a
valid email domain name AFAIK. Feel free to correct me, as I'm not
a DNS expert. :)

Regards,
   Gabriele.
