So both MX for that domain seem to be broken. But that does not explain why there was no delivery attempt made on the low MX. I also queried different DNS servers for MX records on the domain, they all returned the same results as in my first post (and yes, I do have local resolvers running). So I guess this is not a DNS issue (at least not on my end). Regards, Thomas
