More MX problems
brysky said 1 year, 1 month ago:
Hello,
our domain is divinestudiosllc.com
webpage is currently down since I switched the name servers back to the default godaddy ones instead of the host site. So my site is down so we can have emails. My problem is listed below
Been reading several topics on here all day and nothing has really answered my question or the people have resolved their issue without posting a solution.
My problem was like many others that have their domain with GoDaddy and hosting through 000webhost, My email got all jacked up. I was getting the error 550-551 or whatever, and then I sorted it out to be able to sent email but not receive.
I got two MX from GoDaddy support, Mailstore1.secureserver.net and SMTP.secureserver.net now my problem is in that 000webhost only has a spot for one MX to be added in the control panel.
does anyone know which one to use, as I Have read people were only able to either receive or send email depending on which MX they used. My boss wants the GoDaddy (so no google apps) email back up and running.
Any help would be greatly appreciated thank you.

You really should be using both. The MX record smtp.secureserver.net has a priority of 0 and is used first. So, you can try that.

Thank you,
on 000webhost it only has one line for MX record so I didn’t know if using one would be okay or not, or if there was a different MX I could add in for sending and receiving.
What is the difference between the two listed about, other then the priorities?

How is this working out for you? Basically the additional MX record acts like a backup to keep messages queued for delivery should any issue arise with the primary server.
