As far as I know we are talking of local networks all the time. No
dynamic IP addresses, no routable IP addresses -- most probably no
DNS at all.

Of course, if you go "out there" things change drastically. More so
if your MTA is supposed to accept mail from "out there" then it needs
an MX record, yadda, yadda.

But if I understood OP correctly, we are far from this scenario.
