I have mx records for all of my domains (of which there is many) and would
never set an email address to the mx record. Generally you set the email to
the domain or sub domain (I bet you don't have a record for
www.mail.domain.com) and then set the mx record to the mx host name (which
doesn't have to have anything to do with domain.com)
So let's look at domain.com
domain.com a record = 10.10.10.1
domain.com mx pref 5 = mail1.domain.com
mail1.domain.com a record = 10.10.10.2
domain.com mx pref 10 = mail2.domain.com
mail2.domain.com a record = 10.10.1.1
Could be perfectly valid even if the actual outbound were 10.10.10.1 or
10.1.10.10
so long as mail delivered to one of the two inbound mail servers is fed into
the server that stores the mail for retrieval.
Look at this

I quickly perused it and perhaps the $ answer would resolve your issue as
well.

Hi,

Hi,
Just wondering.
Why would you have a hostname in an email address, unless
Post by TSSB Sdn BhdHi,
*virtusertable*
Wondering what causes it to show the error below and return an error
message to sender as for my other server using the same thing and has the *mail
*still able to receive email. Why would this one I need to remove the *mail*
The error return with:-
*554 5.0.0 rewrite: excessive recursion (max 50), ruleset canonify*
Just for precaution, I want to know does removing mail from the *virtusertable
*on each user might lead to another problem? So far at the moment no
complaint but just in case it could lead to another problem*. *Other than
removing the *mail *how else can I solve this problem
