Ok ,
I upgraded to 2.6.5 - and still fails,
eg

dsn=4.4.3, status=deferred (Host or domain name not found. Name service error
for name=eurocommerce.ie type=MX: Host not found, try again)
however when i DIG i get

global options: printcmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status:

Should this new postfix not just ignore the bad entryt and use the primary mx
anyway ?
or is postfix ignoreing all due to the error

Postfix versions 2.3 and later skip a DNS record with a bad name.
Unsupported Postfix versions pretend that the lookup failed when
the result is invalid.
