NOTE: I haven't tried them, but they're valid email addresses (don't ask).
If you are having problems lately (last six months) it's likely that you
haven't deployed SPF and DKIM - contentious issues for, um, the more
conservative mail admin. I like SPF and DKIM - guess I'm not that
conservative. Increasingly you'll find you'll need it - more of us, less
conservative mail admin are deploying it and slowly switching to dumping
mail that doesn't. Without SPF & DKIM it's usually trivial to spoof a
sender, one day spammers might work that out.
