I have my DNS pointing to ns1.digitalocean, ns2.digitalocean and I have mail server set on another server, not on digitalocean droplet. How am i supposed to set dns to point on another server? I have made MX and CNAME records pointing to mail server and it works for outgoing mails but not for incoming so I am not receiving any mails.
