    It could be your MX records are wrong. Did you send the email from gmail website? Or did you send it from outlook?

    The main focus will be on "Reserve DNS does not match the SMTP banner".

    Here are the main points as shown on the website.
    - Pointing the MX record to an IP address is not valid. While it will work in some cases, you will get failures.
    - reverse DNS information is used to check that your server is who it says it is
    - The reverse DNS should ideally match the MX record, and what your server has on the SMTP banner when connecting.

    To summarise, it could be that you didn't set your RDNS record to point to your server IP. Some mail servers require to match the RDNS to be able to accept mails. For RDNS, you will need to contact your provider to set the RDNS record for you as they own the IP.
