Query 2#: Zoho Mail Not Receiving Some Emails
After adding MX records a few days ago Zoho mail not receiving emails
Domain name: intercula.kilev.us
I think I have configured the MX records properly because I have another old domain inmatech.com.us. It has the same setting and it works fine with Zoho. Please, suggest where it went wrong?
Solution:
Emails not being received in Zoho mail could be caused due to multiple cases. Some times the Zoho Mail move the incoming mail to spam folders if it finds the mail to be bit suspicious, in other cases the MX records would be causing the issue.
Since you have mentioned that you modified the MX records, just check the DNS page again for any MX entry other from Zoho. If the address is different from Zoho, then the emails won’t be received from that domain.
Note: The mail exchanger (MX) only receives emails from domains that are in the MX records of your DNS page having variations of mx.zoho.com entered for each MX entry.
If found so, update your DNS page with the correct details of the domain name having the MX entry with Zoho. Also, read Resolve Zoho Mail Not Receiving Email Issue for deep knowledge.

Query 5#: Not Receiving Domain Emails
I have subscribed to Zoho Mail and run a website for designing company. I have few websites www.adminsekwfontek.in, unimagsunmarket.as and unimagsunwebalots.in
These websites are hosted in Hosting Redja Linux server shared. In Contact us page if a visitor fills up the contact form and submits, he gets a message of “message sent successfully”. But the message is not received into my Zoho Mail.
Hosting service Hosting Redja client support replied that the email must be domain specific(Gmail cannot be used) and the email account must be in the same server as the website is hosted. So If I have a domain, I cannot use Zoho emails as my website visitors cannot contact me. I have tested this on Hostgator server also and the problem remains. Any help is happily appreciated.
Solution:
While you have subscribed to Zoho Mail, you need to update your DNS page with the domains that are to send the emails to your email account such as www.adminsekwfontek.in, unimagsunmarket.as and unimagsunwebalots.in. Make sure when you add the MX entry it should be having the address named as Zoho and nothing else so that the emails could be received at your end.
Follow the steps to receive emails from the contact page
- Login to registrar web portal
- Go to DNS control panel >> Email settings.
- Choose to Add new record after deleting the wrong MX entries
- Provide domain name in Host field & enter the record as mx.zoho.com
- Provide priority to be 10 or below (as per registrar capability)
