DNS Trouble - LansingYawnPatrol.com

5 years 6 months ago

Please check my DNS entries on GoDaddy and see if you can figure what I need to do to get www.LansingYawnPatrol.com working.
We were having trouble with email, for example, President@LansingYawnPatrol.com didn't work. President-3306@ToastmastersClubs.org worked.
I tinkered with DNS records Sunday and now www.LansingYawnPatol.com doesn't find our web site. I can get in with 3306.ToastmastersClubs.org .
Ideally, we can key " www.LansingYawnPatrol.com " into a web browser and get our web site
- and also, the group emails will work.
I attached screen shots of our GoDaddy DNS settings, our FreeToastHost "basic" page and the "ViewDNS" screen.

You let your domain expire your need to contact your registrar where you purchased the domain and pay their fees. FTH is not responsible for maintaining your custom domain your club is.

Whois Record for LansingYawnPatol.com
lansingyawnpatol.com is for sale!

Will you please see if there is any other issue with the DNS for LansingYawnPatrol.
I have a receipt from GoDaddy saying we're paid up. The club member who dealt with GoDaddy said we're paid up until 2026.
We had a problem in November with our DNS expiring. This time, the web site behaves differently than in November.
Our YawnPatrol.com expired in November and someone claimed it. We changed to LansingYawnPatrol.com and it never worked right.
Mostly, the group emails, such as "President@LansingYawnPatrol.com", never worked. Recently, keying " www.LansingYawnPatrol.com " in the web browser stopped working. "3306@ToastmastersClubs.org" works. We're happy for that much.

did you follow the documentation?
support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc/item/dns-settings-overview
Your domain is not setup correctly at all

3 Class A

domain.ext A 50.19.253.65 (This directs internet traffic using your custom domain name to the FreeToastHost server.)
www.domain.ext A 50.19.253.65 (This lets you use www. with your custom domain name.)
mail.domain.ext A 50.19.253.65 (This is used with the MX record below to enable email to get to the FreeToastHost server for processing.)

1 MX record for mail

domain.ext MX-10 mail.domain.ext (This tells the registrar how to direct email to an email address containing the custom domain name.)
Thank you,

Yes. I feel that I followed the documentation.
I would appreciate a "second set of eyes".
It's one of those "darn it" moments for us.
Thanks.
