Co-existing email routing with other specific email server
First of all, I’m a beginner of Cloudflare and English, so my words are sometimes incorrect or misleading. Please let me know anytime when my words are like that.
I’m planning to coexist Cloudflare Email routing and my own email server.
I have domain which is not transferred to cloudflare, but nameserver is Cloudflare’s one.
I already set up MX record, and correctly transferring email to my own gmail address.
But,I only can receive email and can’t send emails.
So, Ineed to transfer email through cloudflare, and send and receive email with my own server.
Does someone know how to do it?
If you need more information, please let me know.

why do you want to use email routing if you have your own mail server?
I'm guessing he wants to send email using his own mail server, and receive emails through Cloudflare to forward to for example Workers.
Is this correct @しゃけのきりみ。 ?
Yes, that’s partially true.
I want to use these features for my organization. Our members don’t check their own mail servers because it’s not their primary address. I want to use email routing to forward emails and be able to reply or send new emails from my server.
If that’s not possible, I at least want to be able to send emails from the server and receive them through Cloudflare.
Oh, I forget to write, but i want to use catch-all rules if possible.
my sentences are little complicated, so i’ll write more simple.
priority
1. Receive email through Cloudflare, send email using own server
2. In addition to 1, Receive email both through cloudflare and using own server
3. In addition to 1 and 2, Use catch-all rule for emails which don’t have destination and send it to specific address
For 1), what exactly do you need help with? You said email routing is already working.
2) You can't receive emails in 2 different places. You can configure your mail server to receive traffic on a subdomain and forward to that subdomain from Cloudflare, but that sounds absolutely terrible.
3) Whats stopping you?
Actually, email routing is working, but when i started to use own email server, the email routing stops working, so i am asking…
Thanks telling me about 2.
And for 3, thats same to 1.
While using own server, catch-all and email routing don’t work…
What's your domain?
My domain is
shakenokiri.me
Looks all good, email routing should be working. MX and SPF records are in place.
Okay, i understood the situation…
I misunderstood that everything is mot working because email not comes to own server because i am using email routing….
Sorry for poor question…
And thanks for your supports…!
