If there is an MX record for the target address, it will go there instead of to
the A record for that name. The receiving server will usually try to resolve
the From: host address and reject if it can't, so the sender must have a valid
hostname in your DNS (or turn off that feature). If the receiving server
doesn't accept for the target domain/host address you'd get the relaying denyed
error. If it does accept for the domain but does not have the user in the
address you'd get the user unknown error.
