Exclamation Can't receive emails



I sign up in HostGator for reseller account and within few minutes everything was ready, and within two hours my domain name is working fine after a made some changes to my domain registrar DNS. I can send emails, but still can't receive emails. i went through FAQ and no helpful answer.

Could you help in this please?

How long ago did you change the DNS?
It's possible it's not propagated everywhere yet...

You can go here: http://www.dnsreport.com/
to check you DNS.

Those don't mean it is fully propagated. Just that it propagated to those servers.

When you say you can't receive them, does that mean that you can't get them from the server or that they aren't showing up in webmail?

Yes, I can't get them from the server. Also, they aren't showing up in webmail. Even by my Outlook i can't get them

Verify

1. You have not change the MX record, is that correct?
2. You have an account setup under mail under the correct domain.
3. You can send an email to another email address and reply. (and you dont get the reply)
