I have a site that uses a custom domain BUT does NOT use its Mail. I use GSuite for email. It's MX record goes to Gsuite despite its domain being setup for FTH.
So instead, I have Gsuite set up email aliases, for example, sending an email to contact@dctm.org goes to contact-7864@toastmastersclubs.org.
OK. I send an email from an outside gmail address, and I get:
Your message has not been delivered to any of the original recipients because it has a destination club email address (contact-7864@toastmastersclubs.org) that is not part of the To or CC fields.
Please note: We do not support the use of BCC. If you are sending to an email address on this server using BCC please re-address using To or CC and try again.
So... I sent an email to the contact-7864 address and it works.
