Sam, I feel I need to understand this.

For MX, you have to start with a URI like this:

mailto:paf(_at_)frobbit(_dot_)se

One look up the MX for frobbit.se and get mail.frobbit.se

One then open an SMTP connection to mail.frobbit.se, and can use TLS where the 
cert is compared to mail.frobbit.se.

To me that is a change of a domain name given data in DNS.

But there must be something I do not understand.

Please explain.
