Incoming mail problems - document libraries within SharePoint 2010

Image
I followed TechNet articles so I would be able to email my document libraries however something did not work. I created a host record for my SharePoint Web Front end, and named it SP to receive email. When I tried emailing my Document Library, I received the message; Delivery has failed to these recipients or groups: mydocs@sp.mydomain.local The recipient e-mail system can't process this message now.

I spent several hours on this, small detail! I suppose my next issue is external email. Hope this helps one of you out here!!

Configuring Apple MACs for use in an enterprise environment

We currently own over 150 Apple computers, 20 which are MacBook Pro's and the remaining amount being iMAC’s. All of our MACs are unmanaged and require onsite assistance when issues occur.
