Grr. This is annoying.


I can send/receive email locally (eg. joe@example.com <-> sue@example.com)
I can't send/receive email to/from other domains (eg. joe@hotmail.com <-> sue@example.com)


Everything was working OK until I installed/set-up CloudFlare, and since then I haven't been able to sent or receive to/from other domains.


CloudFlare and my host both say the MX record is pointing to 'mail.example.com' with a Priority 0.


Thanks for any help!
PS: My host is GoDaddy.

I posted my plea for help a bit too soon. LOL.

To get it working:


Delete MX record on cPanel and CloudFlare,
Create new MX record with Priority 1 pointing to mail.example.com on cPanel and CloudFlare.


So, all is working again. Phew.

Though, I have noticed that email from Outlook.com comes in instantly, while mail from Gmail takes about 20 mins to arrive. Who knows why.
