according to a lookup your MX record for greenfether.com is set to "mail.greenfether.com". You should set it to the IP address of the server which is hosting your opentrashmail setup. Then the emails should start coming in

Ok if you can't set it directly, you should set this IP as an A record for the hostname mail.greenfether.com then it should work

not working with A record also. I set the A record and deployed using commands given but no use.
I suggest there should be a complete guide to deploy like postal or mail in a box.

looks like you have removed your valid entries now. can't find your A record for mail.greenfether.com

It's really easy:

  1. set mx record of greenfether.com to mail.greenfether.com
  2. Set A record of mail.greenfether.com to your IPv4 Address

Not sure what you did but neither the MX nor the A record are existing atm
