A mail exchanger record (MX record) is a type of resource record in the Domain Name System that specifies a mail server responsible for accepting email messages on behalf of a recipient's domain, and a preference value used to prioritize mail delivery if multiple mail servers are available.
Comcast Requires valid mx records to point to the correct servers when sending and receiving. Where other companies are not as strict about it.
So in this case what could be causing the issue is that comcast is trying to deliver but not sure where it needs to be delivered.
