Oops. Sorry. I mistook the OP's complaint to be the common case of the gmail problem. I now know that it is very much related to the "MTA bank" issue but not the same thing I understood. Not having a valid MX or A is a violation of the RFC of course. But is it explicitly mentioned? I don't know. -Girish
