Hey, why do some one complain that they are unable to send emails to my domain name?I even found that they get this message along with the bounce back message

—– The following addresses had permanent fatal errors —–
<[email protected]> (reason: 554 5.4.6 Too many hops)

Fix:

 It’s quite easy to fix this issue. All I had to do is to check the MX records set for my domain and ensure that high priority MX is set to my email server’s IP.

 ex:
domainname.com.  IN MX 0 mail.domainname.com

Let me know if you find this hint useful for resolving your email server issue.
