Email handler SPEmailEventReceiver does not work in multiple server farm setup

I came across this situation after developing an email event receiver on dev with standalone sharepoint 2010 installation which was working perfectly fine, but for some reason it was not being fired at all when deployed to the live server with multiple server sharepoint farm. All other things were absolutely fine with the live server and the document library would receive email using OOTB email receiving settings.

After searching a lot through intenet and scraching my head, I came across this post which explains the reason and solution. Thank you Benjamin

On another note, a web.config modification also needs to be deployed in a different way on multiple server farm setup. The post below explains just that
