Google apps settings: MX Records and Cloudflare


We are using CloudFlare for our site. On the last 3-4 days, I am having issues with Google Apps - suddenly it stopped working. I saw that other people have the same issues just on the last few days and wanted to get some help because I can't find a solution.

Can you please advice?

Solution

  • This is because you have CNAME at the root (this technically breaks RFC compliance). Are you able to change your CNAME root to an A record pointing to an IP in your CloudFlare DNS settings? This would solve the issue in the interim. You should also contact us because we have seen a few cases with Google Apps email recently.
