hello,
i have checked but couldt find any problem. i have one mx file even says this will expose you origin IP.
hello, as i understand i should take webmail to grey cloud mode right?
i did it and still cant receive or send mail.
Your MX record ports to mail.fliocal.com. Get rid of the CNAME for mail.fiyocal.com, set an A record for mail.fiyocal.com, and make sure mail.fiyocal.com is not being proxied.
I’m not sure why it’s resolving this way, it doesn’t make much sense, but FWIW, I cannot connect to a mail server at the location you’re currently pointing to. So, I’ll amend my previous instructions with one more, which is: determine the IP address of your mail server and make sure it is functional. Of course, that is sort of implied in the instructions.
$ host -t mx fiyocal.com
fiyocal.com mail is handled by 0 dc-d83d1bc437d1.fiyocal.com.
$ telnet dc-d83d1bc437d1.fiyocal.com 25
Trying 45.113.121.92...
^C

I’m also curious if anything pops up when you hover over the triangle/warning next to the MX record.
hello robert,
i just tried to did what you said and i deleted all other dns settings. but still cant receive and send. and yes warning says as attachment thanks for reply
At least from a DNS perspective, mail seems to be set up correctly now:
[[email protected] ~]$ host -t mx fiyocal.com
fiyocal.com mail is handled by 0 mail.fiyocal.com.
[[email protected] ~]$ host mail.fiyocal.com
mail.fiyocal.com has address 45.113.121.92
[[email protected] ~]$ telnet mail.fiyocal.com 25
Trying 45.113.121.92...
Connected to mail.fiyocal.com.

I think any other issues, such as mail configuration at your hosting company, are not within the scope of Cloudflare.
Hello Robert,
seems like problem solved i can recieve mail and sent.
thank you very much
one more question i deleted all other record excet these 4. can be a problem or i configure them back?
thank you one more time
!
thank you too for your time and advice.
Excellent! I don’t think it should be a problem to add back the other records.
Hello Robert,
i still get warning beside a record or exposing ip address. is that a problem?
thank you i will do soon.
It’s certainly not a technical issue. It could be viewed as an information leak, if that makes sense, but it won’t affect operation.
got it. thank you very very much…
