I wouldn't say it is incapable, but rather, it doesn't have to, as the
SMTP server that sends the mail for you will do the actual lookup.
If you have the need to perform an MX lookup, here is an article with
some sample code:

Thank you. I'm working on a program that monitors one SMTP server and
sends, potentially, multiple alerts via at least two paths to devices
for notification of problems. Though we have two servers we can use
to relay, I like to write my programs such that if others might find a
need for it, they can use it. But they may not have a relay to depend
on, so it's good to either know the limitations or work around them.
