Custom domain: leadspark.ai

Hi!

Last week I added MX records into the Netlify-DNS-hosted domain we have, which point at our mail host over at Siteground.

For some reason though when I query the domain, no MX records show up. I can dig our A records and they’re fine, but I never get any response when I check MX. I can also check MX for other domains we have and they return data ok, but never for the leadspark.ai domain

➜ dig leadspark.ai  A +noall +answer

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> leadspark.ai A +noall +answer
;; global options: +cmd
leadspark.ai.		20	IN	A	3.75.10.80
leadspark.ai.		20	IN	A	3.124.100.143

➜  ~ dig leadspark.ai  MX +noall +answer

; <<>> DiG 9.10.6 <<>> leadspark.ai MX +noall +answer
;; global options: +cmd

I’m a bit out of ideas now! Any suggestions would be most welcome.

Thanks

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.

I believe so, yes. My concern at this stage isn’t that email isn’t reaching my mail servers, it’s that there are no MX records appearing in the domain that I have with Netlify DNS when I dig them.

Please see the original screenshot of my DNS setup in Netlify showing the MX records, and the dig output…not showing them. :wink:

I’m seeing the records:

dig MX @8.8.8.8 +short leadspark.ai
30 mx30.antispam.mailspamprotection.com.
10 mx10.antispam.mailspamprotection.com.
20 mx20.antispam.mailspamprotection.com.

Did something change?
