How to avoid emails going through secureserver.net
I can not tell you have many people share similar problems with MX records on Godaddys CPanel/
Here is the simple fix, go into your Godaddy CPanel. Select MX records > Select Domain name in question > Select Remote Mail Exchanger.
That's it.

I use Zoho.com as my email provider for
[email protected]
. In Gmail, if an email does not use DKIM, a red padlock is shown next to the "From" address (I think). I investigated why emails fromme@mydomain
to my gmail account were showing the red padlock last night and discovered that several fields in my email headers listed the sender assecureserver.net
(GoDaddy).I do not use and am not signed up for GoDaddy email, not in
Workspace
and not an Office365 account.The domain is managed through GoDaddy and I set the two MX records to point at
mx.zoho.com
andmx2.zoho.com
. I followed Zoho's procedure for setting up DKIM last night and was able to send emails that did not show the red padlock.Today, my emails are showing the red padlock again and inspecting the header shows several fields listing
secureserver.net
as the sender.Why are my emails being captured and sent from secureserver.net and how do I stop it? I probably am completely misunderstanding something, but I got it to show the grey padlock for a few emails last night.
