Answers.Body: <p>I would correlate this with the SMTP mail logs.  My guess is that you're not actually delivering to the server you think you're delivering to.</p>
  
  <p>For instance - is the user's email address using the same domain as a site hosted on the server?  E.g. if I'm "jon@example.org" and I'm using a site that hosts "example.org", it's quite possible that my MTA (mail sending program) thinks it's supposed to deliver email to "example.org" addresses to itself, instead of to an outside address.  If you're using <code>postfix</code>, check the <code>mydestination</code> setting in <code>main.cf</code> to see if that's your problem.</p>

  I would correlate this with the SMTP mail logs. My guess is that you're not actually delivering to the server you think you're delivering to.

If you're using `postfix`, check the `mydestination` setting in `main.cf` to see if that's your problem.
  
  I would also install `swaks` on the CiviCRM server and send an email to the test address and see if there's anything fishy in the transaction.
