I’m preparing to configure our WordPress site to utilize Cloudflare.
At our web host, our A Records resolve to a typical IP Address, but our MX Records are pointed to a third-party Email Protection Service with its own proprietary server address.
(Obfuscated example):
A * 123.456.789.01
A mydomain.com
111.111.111.111
A www 111.111.111.111
MX mydomain.com
mx1-abc.mail-service.com
MX mydomain.com
mx2-abc.mail-service.com
These are all correct, but when switching to CF it’s imperative that these MX records NOT be altered/proxied, but continue to resolve to their current values.
When I perform a preliminary DNS scan for this site, CF automatically detects our current DNS setup but rather than the usual orange-cloud or gray-cloud icons, the CF dashboard displays nothing for those MX Records.
How do I achieve this?
Thank you!
