Cloudfare SSL Email Issue

#1

Been a while since I posted here, but need a little help.

I recently added SSL via Cloudfare using the tutorial here in the forum and it worked great giving me the coveted “green icon”. Problem is that emails are no longer getting through to the @mydomain addresses.

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

What email provider are you using?

#3

Have you seen this article on the Cloudflare Community?

#4

Emails are forwarded to Yahoo mail

#5

I have read that tutorial. MX Records have been set up, but nothing getting through. 000webhost doesn’t give me an IP, so I cannot set up the rest.

#6

If you were using the free fowarders inside your panel here then now this will not be working.

I would recommend

Many thanks for the pointers!! I have a .com and went with the Zoho option. Progress at last!! Sending and receiving emails again.

Advice to future 000webhost and Cloudfare users: Update your CNAME @ MX records on Cloudfare to make emails start working once SSL has been installed. Updating MX records on 000webhost allowed me to send, but was unable to receive until I updated the MX on Cloudfare.

Hope this helps somebody in the future.

Many Thanks Infinity
