Hi David,

Thank for the feedback.

I have checked and latency is not an issue in case Koha installation is on
cloud for ex: AWS or Azure.
May be problem in case of local installation of Koha.

I think we can go by system preferences yes or no to mx check.

I did some basic testing mxrecords and gives me correct result.

Will write the patch and share for the testing.
