Actually I had also problems with bigfoot.de when I switched our Suns
from Exim/Sendmail to Postfix. Suddenly mails to bigfoot.de where
deferred because:
postfix/smtp: warning: no MX host for bigfoot.de has a valid A record
postfix/smtp: 8A42EB1566: to=<someone@bigfoot.de>, relay=none,
delay=7578, status=deferred (Name service error for xxx.xxx.de: Host not
found)

What buffles me is the message "xxx.xxx.de: Host not found".

A couple of days later it worked again. It looks like they have
sometimes trouble with their DNS...
