I have this problem: let's say that my site is www.mysite.com; everytime cronjob sends mail to external domains, emails are correctly delivered.
But any email that contains #mysite.com, which is my domain, isn't.
I think that magento is trying somehow to deliver email to itself, but our email server is outside on a web hoster (aruba).
I've tried to modify "MX Entry Maintenance" into cPanel, and set that to "Remote", but nothing changed... I don't even know if that's the correct procedure.
How can I fix this? Where do I have to setup this configuration? Inside magento or inside the hoster ?

I have a Django app set up to send emails from my contact form via SendGrid.
The contact form should send emails to contact#clientdomain.com, which is an account using G Suite, so the client opens the email on Gmail.
However, the emails from the contact form are getting stuck on SendGrid with status deferred or block.
I tried changing the destination email from contact#clientdomain.com to personal_email#gmail.com and it worked just fine.
I don't know what else to do.
Here is my Activity Feed from SendGrid dashboard:
I read when the status is deferred, SendGrid keep trying to send the email again for the next 72h, but I have emails sent 3 days ago that never arrived on the inbox.
Anyone knows what could I do to fix that?
I solved it! Thanks to #Selcuk comment.
I had my domain pointing to a server with cPanel all set up.
Then I developed a new app, deployed it on Heroku and installed the PointDNS to get my domain poiting to the Heroku app.
When I did this, I lost my MX records set up on my server with cPanel.
All I had to do was to add the MX records for G Suite on PointDNS:
We have custom cms that currently sits on a vendor's subdomain, such as cms.vendor.com. It sends email out as coming from user#vendor.com and it seems to be working fine (using Email Queuing + SwiftMailer)
Our vendor asked us to put in the functionality for his users to be able to select from a dropdown, 3-4 other emails address associated with them from other domains he owns. Basically we need to be able to send out emails from our server labeled as being sent from #hisdomains.com, multiple domains.
I am a web programmer and have no clue when it comes to relaying messages. How would I go about being able to send out emails from his other domains? Does he need to setup permissions on his mail servers, or do I need to get into his SMTP servers to send out?
What are some things I should look out for when it comes to SPAM and gmail trusting us?
EDIT:
Not sure if my original question was clear enough. Vendor owns three domains: mysite.com, myothersite.com, mythirdsite.com. He wants a user from our crm to be able to send emails he has on those domains. So my dedicated server will be trying to send an email out as user#mysite.com, user#myothersite.com, and user#mythirdsite.com in the FROM: header.
As long as your server is allowed to send on behalf of a domain your vendor owns, you should not have a problem; just change the From: header to something else when you send out the e-mail.
Stuff like SPF, Sender ID and DKIM have to be properly configured to allow your server to send on behalf of any domain.

Any domain where the mx record resolves to the same server will work. so user#any.domain will email the same user on the mx contingent server.
To answer your question - just make sure that the mx records in the DNS zone file for each domain name points to the same server as the domain you want to share emails on.
also dependent on server configuration (like shared or whatever) I'm assuming it's dedicated with a simple email server installed. I'm not sure on cPanel/shared servers. but possibly the same.
I have set up several email accounts on my vps hosting but I can't receive any emails that are send via php from another hosting. Everything works fine when I send emails from gmail for example, I receive them without a trouble. Does anyone know any reason why emails sent from php can't be received?
Try using phpmailer, it's a good mailing class which automatically sets well defined headers so that the mail is more likely to not land in the spam folder.
Sounds like a spam filter issue. Have you set up a proper Sender ID/SPF framework in your domain name service so that the host appears to be a valid MTA for this domain? Look here for a detailed explanation of Sender ID/SPF/DKIM, etc.
Check your spam folder.
GMail is able to differenciate if a mail has been sent from outlook for example or an automated application. (I dont know how, but they can). If i send an email from my work account to GMAil works, if its a web app or executable with the same email adress, it ends up on the spam folder.
Just rebuilt a companies website, updated their A records to point to it's new server location but kept their email function as was.
Sending from the server works fine, and they receive mail from elsewhere fine but now when trying to send forms as emails to their existing addresses they never arrive.
For example trying to send an email (more specifically a Drupal Webform) from domain.com from Server 1 to email#domain.com on Server 2.
I've tried adjusting the send address from Server 1 which doesn't change anything. I think their IT person said something about receiving email at an exchange (Microsoft?) but I'm not savy this area at all.
Any ideas about this? I guess something is stopping it before it gets delivered (no spam) and the domains are conflicting, had a Google about but it's one of those where I'm not quite sure how to phrase the question. Thanks
SOLVED! In my CPanel I just needed to change my MX Entry to Remote Mail
Server Exchanger
I have a domain, call it mydom.com.
A while ago I started using Google App's email server. I set up MX and the rest of the stuff records as Google wanted, and all is working well since.
On www.mydom.com I have a website, DNS and still running mail server (which basically doesn't do much).
Among other things, on www.mydom.com, I have some contact form - basic php page that takes user's input and sends it to predefined email address at mydom.com. It sends it with php's sendmail function.
My issue is - all those email that get sent from localhost to *#mydom.com (by php's function, or possible by some cron jobs reporting some issues) DO NOT go to Google's email servers but instead get picked up by localhost and it's mail server.
So far, I was resolving this issue by setting up a new mail account at Google account, which was basically calling my local mail server by it's IP address, logging into old, abandoned email account and pulling those misplaced emails to the new, #mydom.com account at Google App.
Obviously I'm missing some entry either in local DNS, host file or something..
Does anyone know how do I fix it?
Hey, the same question was asked here: https://serverfault.com/questions/102647/sendmail-to-local-domain-ignoring-mx-records-part-2
and the answer to it works for me, don't forget to include the dot after the domain!
If it doesn't work to the test call and see how the mail traces.
best of luck, svullo
