If I have a domain name for which there are 3 MXs setup in a Round
Robin configuration, wouldn't mailman be given a different IP each
time? For example:
; zone file fragment
@ IN MX 10 mail.example.com.
....
mail IN A 192.168.0.4
IN A 192.168.0.5
IN A 192.168.0.6
If I tell mailman SMTPHOST='mail.example.com', in theory it should
receive a different IP to connect to each time it queries that host
name. UNLESS mailman is internally caching that information (to use
again on subsequent runs.)
