Hey, so somehow our  MX records on our domain got messed up (??? how does this happen?  Everything was working FINE this morning, then BAM! suddenly screwed), so any email that was sent to us today (Saturday June 30th), including through the contact form, were bounced back to the sender .  I corrected the error,…
