I can solve the MX record issue.

In *theory*, if a system is trying to send email and it cannot find an MX record, it *should* fall back to looking for an A record (which does exist) but not everything follows that.

There does appear to be some tech issues with this list too, I was being blocked from posting to the list and after some investigation our IT department responded with:

 

"Their DNS servers not configured with MX records properly for us to deliver emails to them."

 

Now, this could quite easily be just a difference in configuration and not very good wording from our IT guys, or there could be a real problem.

 

We have hard coded DNS entries so hopefully this reply will hit the list. ;-)

 

Figured it was worth pointing out as some of the issues may not be just to do with whitelisting.
