Change name servers?
Good day.
Here's the problem: I have a domain with IONOS, and I'm currently offering it for sale on Sedo. If you park it via Sedo's name servers, you pay less commission, which is also more advantageous. What I didn't know is that this also means I'll stop receiving emails. I haven't received any emails about this domain for weeks. Is there a way to restore them? So, will I get all the emails back if I change the name servers again? I don't want to do that, since I'm currently paying Sedo for a promotion. But I'm still waiting for very important emails.
Ionos support was too incompetent to help and Sedo constantly pushes you away.

If Sedo only adjusts the A-Records, then, of course, the mailing does not work anymore. I don't know if you have the chance to put an MX entry on Sedo. If not, there are no more emails. Even if you change the name server again, what came to mail has disappeared in Nirvana. So you can restore the mail functionality, but the missed emails are fuzzy.
Therefore, I would recommend only parking domains if they are not used completely.
Damn it, okay. I felt too bad. You can't change the mx records yourself. I'll try the support again later.
"…then what has come to emails has disappeared in Nirvana." – apart from those / most sent in the last 4 days. For as long as most MTAs try to send the mail when the first attempt failed before they finally give up.
However, then take the time until the expiry of the MX records and the associated A/AAAA records in the resolver cache, and you will come out for about 3 days.
