Configure Linode MX Records for SES Mail From

Question

Hi All,  
  
I have successfully setup DKIM. I am working now on Mail From. I am using Linode. SES is saying the MX record is wrong. At Linode I have set the "subdomain" field to "mail" and the "Mail Server" field to "feedback-smtp.us-east-1.amazonses.com" wither Preference set to 10 and TTL set to Default. Still, SES is saying "To complete configuration of your custom MAIL FROM domain, you must update the domain's DNS settings using the MX record provided."  
  
Anyone else have issues setting up Mail From with Linode? Their MX field names don't match the ones on SES, but Linode support tells me this is correct.  
  
Thanks,  
David

Answer

Incase anyone else has this issue. It turns out what I had to to resolve SES not seeing the MX record was just turn "Custom MAIL FROM" off and on. Silly... but yeah it didn't automatically detect the fixed MX record on its own over several days.
