In this case, the MX record still exists, but the SMTP server is no longer responding, so I guess this option will not help.
The provider in question is actually email.si:
Code:
$ dig email.si IN MX
...
;; ANSWER SECTION:
email.si. 3421 IN MX 20 mx5.email.si.
$ telnet mx5.email.si 25
Trying 81.24.97.24...
telnet: Unable to connect to remote host: Connection timed out

Heh, bandwidth actually isn't a problem in this case, since the postfix server is only being used by the websites running on the same server. I was only hoping to get rid of the log entries and bounced messages, but as I said before, it's just a minor annoyance, not a serious issue. The bulk of the problem has already been solved with till's suggestion.
