    How long ago did you add those MX records? Your DigitalOcean DNS settings look right, but your domain isn’t returning any MX records when queried at the moment.

    The records are showing up now, so it should work:

    ;; ANSWER SECTION:
paginawebrural.com. 1799    IN  MX  10 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.com.
paginawebrural.com. 1799    IN  MX  5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com.
paginawebrural.com. 1799    IN  MX  10 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.com.
paginawebrural.com. 1799    IN  MX  1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.com.

Hello,

From what I can tell everything looks correct on the DigitalOcean & GoDaddy side.

Have you setup a GMAIL EMAIL HOSTING ACCOUNT?

Unless I am missing something they look good to me.

How long ago did you make this change? It can take a few hours to update.
