Custom email domain setup in Route 53 does not work

I've been trying to set up my custom email domain since the feature was available and have not had any luck. I've looked at all the tutorials posted specifically for Route 53, checked and rechecked then started over several times and always get the same error, Check your MX record, I even wait the 72 hours after each attempt and nothing ever works. What am I missing?

iCloud custom email domain stopped receiving mail For the last two days, after zero issues for several months since setting up, one of my custom domains has not been receiving mail. This is across all devices as well as iCloud.com. The other custom domain is not impacted. I can still send outgoing mail from the domain in question. No DNS settings have changes. After 24 hours, some senders are receiving the following NDR: 451 4.3.0 <name@custom.com>: Temporary lookup failure Has anyone had any luck removing a custom domain and re-adding it?

How to see DNS settings AFTER setting up iCloud Custom Email Domain I have set up a custom email domain on iCloud a few months ago and it has been working great. It stopped working a few days ago, with no emails going in or out. I want to review the DNS settings on my domain, but how do I see the settings supplied by iCloud during the setup process? If I go into settings I can only add or delete email addresses.

Setting up Apple Mail accounts I am using Bluehost as my domain registrar and WIX as my web builder / hosting site. When setting up email accounts using my non-icloud domain, do I still need to edit the MX, TXT, and CNAME records at Bluehost? When I go to edit these values a message states: The DNS records below will only apply if your nameservers are pointed to Bluehost. My name servers are pointed to WIX.
