So, something's either misconfigged or was poorly written in
Majordomo
or some processing/security script, and it needs an A record?
If it's your domain, try adding one and see if the problem goes
away....?
Also, what about the fact that there's no mx record for the server
at the address Duncan is using (see below)...

KDK

%host t=mx tagish.taiga.ca
Using domain server:
Name: tagish.taiga.ca
Addresses: 204.209.164.130

Host not found.
