example.com with A records (iPv4-1, iPv4-2) and AAAA records (iPv6-1, iPv6-2)subdomain.example.com, DO automatically creates a CNAME record with HOST subdomain that aliases subdomain.ondigitalocean.app. (looks like a CloudFlare proxy server that ultimately directs to example.com?).I want to create MX records for subdomain.example.com to receive mail at that address. However, attempting to create MX or TXT records for subdomain.example.com produces this appropriate error:
Records cannot share a name with a CNAME record.
Quick research explains this is necessary for DNS resolution.
It looks like I have two options:
subdomain.example.comBottom line - Is option 2 possible, and if so, how should I modify my DNS records?
Specifically, what IP address should the A/AAAA records direct to for subdomain.example.com? I assumed they should direct to the IP for subdomain.ondigitalocean.app. (the CNAME record auto-generated by DO^) but a quick IP lookup shows the same iPv4/iPv6 values as example.com - obviously.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you!
