Right now, there doesn't seem to really be a problem, except that
dsl.pipex.com has 3 MX records that all have a priority of 4.  I don't
think that this breaks RFCs, but it does cause some confusion, unless
he is trying to implement some cheap round-robin effect.  

But now, dsl.pipex.com's MX records all point to A records, that all
resolve for me just fine.
