I am assuming you have this situation:
MAIN domain name: users have email addresses @domain.com
CHILD domain name: users have email addresses @child.domain.com
Have you set up a DNS MX record for the child domain? It is not
sufficient to set up a MX record for the main domain name. You also need
a MX record for each sub-domain that will be receiving email
"@child.domain.com"
HTH!
