Every MX record should point to CNAME or an A record. "A" records work
better but CNAME are fine but you have to do more wierdness to get it
working.
I think qmail looks up the A record, then the MX record, but I'm not
sure about that.

It's a little wierd. The messages are stored in one place and the queue
in another.
The message is in /var/qmail/queue/mess/$n/$messagenumber
The addresses that is to be sent to is in
/var/qmail/queue/remote/$n/$messagenumber or
/var/qmail/queue/local/$n/$messagenumber
So cat /var/qmail/queue/mess/$n/$messagenumber to view the message and
/var/qmail/queue/remote/$n/$messagenumber to veiw where it's going.
This is one reason why I think the qmail-queue system sucks.
