Have been for a while, after running into the alternate issue of forms
trying to claim a 'from' address of user@xxxxxxxxxx , the extra MX catches
those in case i forget to patch up the form ;P
[Otherwise i get weird things like some mail being accepted at MX and some
at domain, which drives everyone nuts]

Seems to prevent spurious alias looping as well....
