Ok, so now I'll admit that there is something fishy going on with postfix delivering
to A records instead of MX records. I'll keep looking and let folks know when I find
something.

In the mean time, if anyone else notices postifix delivering to their domain A record
instead of the proper MX, please let me know offline so I can get some kind of
correlation.
