Is there any way to tell mailx to ignore an email server configured in sendmail.cf or in /etc/hosts and just do a DNS lookup? I don't see anything in any docs for a flag or anything to do that.

There isn't because it simply starts a pipe to sendmail and feeds the
message into it.

there is a "sendmail" option so you can tell mailx what sendmail to run. YMMV.
