Does it still do this if, instead of round robin on the A records, you use 
round robin on the MX records?

ie:

mail    IN MX 10 milter1.domain.com
mail    IN MX 10 milter2.domain.com
mail    IN MX 10 milter3.domain.com

(assume unique A record for each milter)


Right now, I only have two servers running in parallel, but hope to add a 
third soon.
