: Not receiving email after setting MX records I have domain on Bluehost named example.com and I am hosting it on AWS. I have setup an email account on Bluehost and added its MX record in AWS:
I have domain on Bluehost named example.com and I am hosting it on AWS. I have setup an email account on Bluehost and added its MX record in AWS:
"example.com" "0 mail.example.com"
But still I am not able to receive any email on my account but I am able to send it. What are the points I have ignored?

Check that:
The mail.example.com address points to your mailserver IP address. (You can look up the IP at www.whatsmydns.net/ by searching for the A record for that domain.)
If you see no IP address for that domain, you'll have to add an A record for your mail.example.com address that points to your mailserver's IP address, or a CNAME that points to Bluehost's email domain. Bluehost should provide the mailserver IP or domain in your email setup instructions.
Your CNAME and MX records have propagated. A search at www.whatsmydns.net/ for the MX record of example.com should return your mail.example.com address worldwide. You should also see the mailserver IPs when you search for the A record for mail.example.com.
Confirm that Bluehost have completed setup of your mail account.
