    1) Other MTAs will screw with CNAME'd domains. Sendmail certainly does.

    2) You can't mix CNAMEs with other records. If you have a CNAME, that's
    the only record you can legitimately have in place for a given FQDN. ie.,
    your MX record becomes invalid when you add the CNAME.

    Hope this helps.
