That gives:
dig -t MX ntlworld.com
; <<>> DiG 9.3.1 <<>> -t MX ntlworld.com

... So they've still mucked up on their web page instructions!
And nope... That still doesn't work for Postfix:
Setting:
relayhost = ntlworld.com
gives:
relay=none, delay=1, status=deferred ([smtpin.ntlworld.com]: Name or
service not known)
relayhost = 81.103.221.11
works fine :-)
