Asked by Gabriel VB
Hello, my webapp is installed and running in DigitalOcean, but I want to have the ability to send and receive emails using my domain name and using my shared hosting. I have followed a tutorial here : https://www.digitalocean.com/community/questions/how-to-solve-emails-problems-after-site-is-migrated-to-digital-ocean
and after that, I can send emails , but I cannot receive them (not all of them, example : from Gmail) , and also, I cannot configure an email client like Thunderbird to access the account, basically, my domain name is registered in Name.com, my shared hosting is in Banahosting (where my webapp was hosted before) and my website/webapp is hosted in DigitalOcean now.
I have created these records in Cpanel : A @ DROPLET_IP A www DROPLET_IP A mail CPANEL_IP
And not sure what else to do
