Don't believe it! DNS can be, and sometimes is, broken by people who are unrelated to the mailbox ownership. In my case, it's been, ooh, days since some idiot of a DNS-provider decided to change my DNS setup to add a bogus MX record at priority 0 (i.e. higher than anything *I* could add). The provider is one that offers a "mail forwarding" service, and decided to add their forwarding server to my domain, even though the forwarding wasn't setup. The net effect was that all my inbound e-mail received hard bounces (relaying denied), and only when someone called me did I discover the problem.
