You're incorrect.  This was discussed previously on this mailing list, and
the lazy consensus was that the IPMC is fine if both $podling.a.o and
$podling.incubator.a.o work, as long as the podling website includes proper
incubator branding.

So I'm not sure what needs to be done to enable the MX record, I can hold a
more formal vote on the subject if lazy consensus isn't enough.
