Obviously a bad thing, maybe, but nothing to do with his problem:

- His zone data no longer has this record, the MX->CNAME problem had 
already been corrected.

- The message is just a warning, it does not prevent the zone from 
loading.  In fact, the message isn't even logged at load time, only 
at query time.
