Quando você redirect
para um domínio, o domínio redirecionado se torna o destino de todas as pesquisas de DNS subseqüentes, como as executadas por mx
.
Veja RFC 7208 § 6.1 :
The <domain-spec> portion of the redirect section is expanded as per the macro rules in Section 7. Then check_host() is evaluated with the resulting string as the <domain>. The <ip> and <sender> arguments remain the same as in the current evaluation of check_host().
