I do....

(from previous post)
optusnet.com.au.        37147   IN      A       211.29.132.105 

But the rev dns is :
C:\>dig -x 211.29.132.105

; <<>> DiG 9.2.3 <<>> -x 211.29.132.105

And of course the dns names shown in my post were from xmail - which got
them from rev dns.
So I agree with you, the www.optusnet.com.au is *NOT* the "A" record.

But there is an "A" record that matches the domain where you would usually
see the "MX"
In this case there are both A & MX for "optusnet.com.au"

And, BTW, "www.optusnet.com.au" is *NOT* the A record. If XMail would have 
tried the A record, you should have seen "optusnet.com.au" in there.
