It will need an A record if no MX record. Based on your tcpdump output in your private reply to me, some other domain is answering an A query (whether after an MX or not) with 169.254.140.241. So it's not a Postfix issue, and probably not even your server issue, unless your own DNS server has that configured. For the list ... it's a case of some DNS answering with the LL address ... case closed with respect to Postfix. -- sHiFt HaPpEnS!
