: Webmail does not receive from outside my domain I have my mail server hosted in Godaddy. My domain is also registered in godaddy but, I have third-party name servers which is Route53 from aws.
I have my mail server hosted in Godaddy. My domain is also registered in godaddy but, I have third-party name servers which is Route53 from aws. I have my website there. Now, for the mail server i wanted to keep using godaddy hosting. So, I created these records in Route 53 hosted zone.
Type Name Value
A mail.sheba.xyz 166.62.10.36
MX mail.sheba.xyz 1 mail.sheba.xyz
TXT mail.sheba.xyz "v=spf1 a mx include:secureserver.net ~all"
Now, my mail is working fine except that no emails from outside my domain is not received. I can send to outside domains though. What could be the problem here? I followed this: Why won't webmail receive emails from outside my domain?. But, does not seem to solve my issue. And it's almost five days, after I switched the name servers.

GoDaddy uses email servers that are not hosted on the same server as your web hosting. This happens to be rather common for many shared hosting web companies. In order to use GoDaddy's email with your domain you need to point your domain records to the correct addresses. Pointing to your domain is not the correct procedure as you will need to point your records to their email server which is secureserver.net.
Your MX DNS records should look something like this:
SOURCE: Using GoDaddy for Email
US MX Records
Fully Qualified Host Type Priority Value
yourdomain.com MX 10 mailstore1.secureserver.net
yourdomain.com MX 0 smtp.secureserver.net
EU MX Records
Fully Qualified Host Type Priority Value
yourdomain.com MX 10 mailstore1.europe.secureserver.net
yourdomain.com MX 0 smtp.europe.secureserver.net
AS MX Records
Fully Qualified Host Type Priority Value
yourdomain.com MX 10 mailstore1.asia.secureserver.net
yourdomain.com MX 0 smtp.asia.secureserver.net
