private MX record?

Hi All: I have a domain I'm hosting which is using my main mailservers, so
the MX records in theirdomain.com are pointing to mydomain.com:
theirdomain.com MX 10 mail.mydomain.com
theirdomain.com MX 20 mail2.mydomain.com

If I want to set up a different mailserver for them (let's call it
"localrouting") for a separate purpose (it will only be used for outgoing
mail), do I need an MX for that server or just an A record?

So I'd have:
localrouting.theirdomain.com A xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx

I don't want incoming mail directed to this server ever!

TIA, Andrew
