Well, at least for the FQDNs that they're actually making using, such as
the ones the MX records point to (and they do).  There are records for
both "mail" and "www" subdomains.

There probably should be an A record for just the domain name, but I've
not looked into the specs about this for a long time, and I'm not
willing to go by memory.

Ugh.  Having to pander to things stuffed up by other people.

There's no real (proper) need to have any website attached to a domain
name, no website address, no webserver.

Even if you're going to pander to stupid services, you should only need
to set up the right domain records, but not actually have a webserver.
