Wait, so the MX record doesn't actually deliver the email itself? Mind blown!

Yeah, the MX record just points to the mail server. The actual delivery is done by the Mail User Agent.

D is definitely wrong. The DNS server doesn't act as an MTA, it just provides the MX record information.

User B will retrieve the email message using either POP3 or IMAP, so B is also correct.

I think C is also correct. The user's email client needs to perform the DNS MX lookup to find the destination mail server.

A and B are the correct options. The MX record lookup is necessary to find the mail server, and the recipient will retrieve the email using POP3 or IMAP.

I agree with you, Katy. I also believe that option C is correct because User A's MUA needs to perform a DNS MX record lookup.
