That's not possible under the client's current setup. I can remove the
mail.domain.tld address in this case, however for clients that have
SMTP AUTH and remote users, a change of this sort, or a change of the
sub-domain would cause them to have to change their mail client
configurations, and I would prefer to not do that for obvious reasons.

The mail server is located at mail.domain.tld (according to the A record), but their MX records on their authoritative DNS server both point to us. Unfortunately, they are still receiving E-mail directed at their server instead of going through ours. Is this a common long-term issue where some spamware will automatically try the mail.domain.tld address, or is it possible that this is being cached for this long? I don't believe there are any issues with timeouts causing this E-mail to fall over to other addresses, and their site is on an address range that is different from their mail server. I would hate to have to tell clients that they have to change the name of their SMTP server if it's called "mail."
