cannot receive email

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

The guides to resolving these email issues are almost always outdated or do not reflect the exact issue that I am facing, which is weird because this should be the most basic of tasks. I am using cloudflare for SSL for my domain, nothing else. I use go daddy as a host. I have other domains without these issues. For some reason this domain has this issue. Is it because it is newer or Go Daddy changed things since I setup the other domains? I do not know. I just want to use email with my domain. I’m ready to delete everything, as this shouldn’t be this complicated to route simple emails to an address. I have uploaded a photo of the issue and I am very angry that this is happening. I have read through the forums and no one seems to have an issue with the basic setup of email from using SSL on their go daddy domain, it’s always something weird they are doing that is causing an issue.

I was on support with go daddy and they had me add these extra lines of code and it still does not work. So, should I delete everything and start over again? I am talking heading into the cloudflare control panel and deleting the domain right out of it. I am extremely tired and frustrated that I would even have to toil over something so simple and basic.

Make sure your mail client is using mail to send/receive mail and not the domain which is now proxied.
