I’m trying to set up gmail for my domain.
I added the google settings to my MX Records as seen below
ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. ALT3.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. ALT4.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
but Google don´t seem to find the Records I have already waited 48hrs and the result was that I didn´t have any MX records. I have double checked the spelling and it all adds up.
The domain is from Godaddy but I’ve directed the name servers to Digital Ocean.
I really don´t know why this isn’t working and I don´t want to be without my email for another 48hrs.
here is the Zonefile
$ORIGIN www.mydomain.com. $TTL 1800 www.mydomain.com. IN SOA ns1.digitalocean.com. hostmaster.www.mydomain.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN NS ns1.digitalocean.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN NS ns2.digitalocean.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN NS ns3.digitalocean.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN A 138.68.150.155 www.www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN CNAME www.mydomain.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN MX 1 aspmx.l.google.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN MX 5 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN MX 5 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN MX 10 alt3.aspmx.l.google.com. www.mydomain.com. 1800 IN MX 10 alt4.aspmx.l.google.com.

Adding this answer if anyone stumbled upon this question while trying to resolve the similar issues i had.
I had a similar issue, it seems like Add Gmail MX records creates wrong records. replacing ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. with gmr-smtp-in.l.google.com. worked for me.
