What We Built

A comprehensive DNS and email infrastructure recovery that diagnosed and resolved a silent email outage caused by years of accumulated DNS drift. We cleaned up conflicting records from multiple providers and restored full Google Workspace email delivery.

Key Highlights

Diagnosed complete email outage where Google Workspace appeared functional but mail delivery was silently failing

Identified MX records pointing to a non-Google mail provider, preventing Gmail from receiving incoming messages

Discovered SPF records that excluded Google, causing outbound messages to fail or be flagged as spam

Found and corrected a typo in a backup MX record that introduced intermittent delivery risk

Audited legacy DNS records from Microsoft 365, GoDaddy email, and SIP services coexisting with Google Workspace

Removed all non-Google MX records and reconfigured domain for Google Workspace

Corrected SPF record to authorize Google as the sole mail sender

Validated DKIM and DMARC alignment for email authentication

Documented legacy records for future cleanup and reference

Verified mail flow using Google Admin email logs and live testing

Applied all changes carefully to avoid additional downtime or data loss

Left domain in a clean, supportable state for future maintenance
