Jan 11: MX record woes
So happily I had set up A record to point mail.<domain>.com to Bluehost servers and the outbound mails were going on fine.
But wait.. the incoming mails were not being received - reason being - the MX records were not set properly. :/
So lesson learnt, when some other server tries to send email to another server, MX records are checked and further actions are then made. Its not that I didn't know it before. I did. The problem was that I 'thought' I had already done that and was ignoring that fact that I hadn't.
And I wasn't able to trace out the mails perfectly - on where they were going and how.
There is this tool - www.mtgsy.net that checks the email trace for you. Helpful to debug. :)
