If you have an address username@domain and you want to send mail to that
address (and Postfix sender verification works just like that - attempts to
send mail to the address, and if SMTP transaction is accepted, cancels the
attempt and backs out before DATA stage), and "domain" does not have a MX
record, then, by RFC, A or AAAA records are checked for "domain". There is
no obligation to have a MX record defined for hostname to have mail
delivered to that address.

Maybe "smtp.antispamcloud.com" simply violates the RFC by rejecting domains
that don't have an MX record? (and Postfix does not)
