host MX1.FASTMAIL.FM

I don't suppose we can have the host MX1.FASTMAIL.FM work like you'd expect? It would be nice if it were a CNAME pointing at IN1.SMTP.MESSAGINGENGINE.COM which is painful to type when you're troubleshooting SMTP through firewalls or servers from the command line.

I so wish we could do this. Or mail.mydomain.com or mx.mydomain.com on enhanced accounts, so I didn't have to remembers the long messageengine one.
