The use case for this is e.g. a www server that is a separate machine to
the mailinabox, but which needs to send emails to the internet - for example it
may be running Wordpress or some other web app and need to notify arbitrary
users of comments etc.
In such cases, as the www administrator is using mailinabox, they're almost
certainly better off letting mailinabox do as much as possible as far as email
is concerned (as opposed to having the www sibling host do full delivery
itself) - among other things this simplifies reasoning about DNS records.
