I never got WrongMx working and have no idea why.
In my /etc/mail/spamassassin, I have two files, wrongmx.cf and wrongmx.pm
The cf file looks like this:
loadplugin WrongMX wrongmx.pm
header WRONGMX eval:wrongmx()
describe WRONGMX Sent to lower pref MX when higher pref MX was up.
tflags WRONGMX net
score WRONGMX 1.0
My dns MX record looks like this:
;; ANSWER SECTION:
syslang.net. 9738 IN MX 100 mx2.zoneedit.com.
syslang.net. 9738 IN MX 0 syslang.net.
The following file came in and we can see that it did not work. The
mail came through mx2.zoneedit.com

The pm file is the latest. This trap has never fired and I'm about to give

something wrong. Anyone?

That's probably true. But I was thinking that it would be nice to be able
to use something that someone else had already written. Is anyone using
this plugin and getting any use out of it? I'd just like to know if I'm
doing something wrong or if it's just plain broken.

and another rule comparing the time mail was received - it the difference
was .g. above 5 minutes, it's quite possible that the primary MX was _not_
up ehwn the secondary acepted the mail.

Well, he may have many domeins, some out of his control, and some may have
different backup MX servers...

I can't really see the point your using this plugin. All you need is a
one-line custom rule looking for mx2.zoneedit.com in received headers.
Presumably the advantage of the plugin is that it automatically detects
that a server is a backup. You already know what your backup is
called, and presumably you control your mx settings.

that may be the problem.
I was somewhere trying to provide the destination address to spamc -u
but didn't seem to work...

That's unlikely to help, the address appeared several times in the
email, so "all_to_addrs" should have found it, assuming that "xxx" was
consistent and correct.
From a quick look at the plugin, it looks like it takes the domain from
the username or falls back to the first valid address in
"all_to_addrs". So it could fail if the username contains a domain,
and that domain has different MX records.

Maybe the plugin was unable to find out the destination domain. Can you try
inserting X-Envelope-To: or Delivered-To: header with the envelope recipient
to the mail?
