What is the issue you’re encountering

What dns records belong to go daddy? I would like to remove all unnecessary DNS records.

What steps have you taken to resolve the issue?

I moved from godaddy to Cloudflare for domain registration, I have Microsoft for my email

What feature, service or problem is this related to?

DNS records

If you want the Cloudflare Community to be able to dig in to that for you, - you will need to share a complete list of DNS record(s).

Based on that specific information, you will at least need to keep the DNS record with type MX, that is pointing to elevatesolutions-io.mail.protection.outlook.com.

It will be wise to keep “include:spf.protection.outlook.com” in the type TXT record, that starts with “v=spf1”, however, whether to keep “include:_spf-us.ppe-hosted.com” or to let that part go, that depends on whether you’re (still) using Proofpoint or not.

Digging fully, and thoroughly in to it would, as mentioned above, require a complete view of the DNS record(s), as well as maybe further details about what you use, and what you don’t use (any more).

I use Proofpoint (email security), Outlook/Microsoft for email server and other Microsoft services.

I need to drop off anything related to Go Daddy

The first four type A DNS records are pointing to Amazon (AWS Global Accelerator), so if you’re still using them, or otherwise can verify (e.g. with your hosting provider) that they are as they should be, then leave them alone.

The vast majority of the other DNS records are pointing towards Microsoft in one way or another (e.g. Office 365, Lync).

You seem to have both a stand-alone “_dmarc” (type TXT) DNS record, but also one that is delegating the sub-domain (and any of it’s sub-sub-domains) towards OnDMARC (the one of the type NS).

I would kill one of them, as the TXT won’t have any effect, when the NS record is there.

Specifically for DNS record(s) that can be attributed directly to Go Daddy, I see two:

  1. The second CNAME, that is pointing _domainconnect towards _domainconnect.gd.domaincontrol.com.

  2. The sixth CNAME, that is pointing pay towards paylinks.commerce.godaddy.com.

The others are not showing any (direct) affiliation with Go Daddy.
