Is this OK/normal? I'm thinking yes, because:
yes, it's ok.
Ok, good... :)

Note that both smtp.example.com and example.com are FQDN.
Right, but the latter can never be a _host_ name...

Hummm, www.sg is a domain (see whois) and a host.

ws is one of the "martian" TLDs:

$ host ws
ws has address 63.101.245.10
ws mail is handled by 10 mail.worldsite.ws.

but wait, there is progress: now I see they removed the wildcard MX (used to point to 64.70.19.33).

oh but wait again.
$ host mail.worldsite.ws
mail.worldsite.ws has address 64.70.19.37
$ host 64.70.19.37
37.19.70.64.in-addr.arpa domain name pointer mailrelay.37.website.ws.

good, it has a PTR, even if it's a "generic" one, but

$ host mailrelay.37.website.ws
mailrelay.37.website.ws has address 64.70.19.35

so the 37 became a 35. let's see the smtp greeting:

$ telnet mail.worldsite.ws 25
...
220 mailrelay.30.website.ws ...
quit

now that's a 30. so let's see what .30 says:


$ telnet 64.70.19.30 25
...
220 mailrelay.29.website.ws ...
quit


Did they change their minds but didn't update everywhere or was someone having fun there?

(but I like the "website" 2-level domain!).
