Actually, the REAL state of the art is that they look up your MX records, and do this to the HIGHEST ranked one (not the lowest). This is on the (it turns out, quite valid) assumption that it won't be spamblocked as well as the main MX relay is, but will be validated to forward stuff in to you. And where they're trying that, we're finding it works (grumble grr) damn well.
Exactly. I didn't state that, but you put it well. But who cares if it's the primary MX or not? If it hits any of my MXs, it will be delivered.
