DO NOT POST OFFLIST

so what exactly is your problem?
if your MX is configured correct it would not deliver to the wrong destination
you say your MX knows valid addresses - so why does he not know the
final-destination?

BTW:
"on the MX will be bounced immediately. So there is no chance of backscatter"
if it is BOUNCED you ARE are backscatter
there is a hughe difference between bounce/reject

if a message is rejected to server who tried to deliver will generate the bounce
to his sender, if you bounce you will send error-message to forged senders which
is the definition of backscatters
