Adding Yahoo Email and Domain to AWS LightSail

0

I have a yahoo business "turbify" domain and email. My website is hosted on AWS LightSail WordPress with a static IP. I have changed my 4 DNS records in the yahoo domain panel to point to my LightSail DNS addresses.

www.catiawidgets.net now works fine, I have to secure it with Bitnami, which I can do to make it a secure website https.

When I did this my Yahoo email stopped working. I'm assuming its because all email traffic is now going to my LightSail domain and it does no know how to be redirected? blah@catiawidgets.net

I tried adding the same two MX records from the yahoo domain panel with the same priority's, the record names i just made them mail1 and mail2

20 mail1.catiawidgets.net mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net 30 mail2.catiawidgets.net mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net

I can send email just not receive, am I doing the right thing?

thanks Madaxe

Seems you have setup your MX record incorrectly. There is no MX record entry against catiawidgets.net
dig MX catiawidgets.net
;catiawidgets.net. IN MX

Your Name server is on AWS
dig NS catiawidgets.net +short
ns-1133.awsdns-13.org.
ns-1810.awsdns-34.co.uk. ns-36.awsdns-04.com.
ns-686.awsdns-21.net.

you have A record pointing to below IP address
dig A catiawidgets.net +short
108.128.100.15

Go to AWS Route 53 hosted zone of catiawidgets.net and setup the correct MX records

20 <replace with correct MX record>
30 <replace with correct MX record>

Here is an example video to setup MX record on AWS correctly. https://support.titan.email/hc/en-us/articles/900001861463-Setup-Titan-MX-and-TXT-records-for-AWS-Route-53

And you should be good.

You can validate your MX record changes by typing in your domain details "catiawidgets.net" on this website https://mxtoolbox.com/MXLookup.aspx

https://mxtoolbox.com/SuperTool.aspx?action=mx%3acatiawidgets.net&run=toolpage

Once you are able to see the correct MX records you can able to receive emails to your mailbox.

Let me know if it works?

  • Hey Abhishek, I'm new to this and I'm using LightSail, not Route 53. I called Turbify they said to add the following MX records :- mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net Priority: 10

    In light sail I have to provide the following

    Priority Record name Route traffic to 10 mail.catiawidgets.net mx-biz.mail.am0.yahoodns.net

    I have to provide a value for record name i used "mail" what should it be? thanks Marc
