This is not quite how RMX works; perhaps our disagreement stems from a
simple miscommunication.
Won't you please take a look at the page?

Yes, I did not realize that RMX was based on the notion that I've
previously characterized as stuffing the Internet back into the old
big BBS model favored by AOL. Forcing users to pick an ISP and stick
to it is characteristic of a BBS or bulletin board system. It has
many attractions for some ISPs but not for others. Many users were
happy with BBS's, but some weren't and would not be.
Have you considered Paul Vixie's version of RMX? Given the premise
of requiring users to have a "home sending MTA," why isn't Paul's the
obvious and only reasonable instantiation of the idea? What do new
RRs buy that do not come from MX records, except a lot of problems?
