Good afternoon,
I have a hosting service integrated with Don Web, and I linked the domain with Railway to use the Railway website with this domain. The issue is that when I enter the CNAME DNS records provided by Railway, it conflicts with Don Web's MX records. I need to know what I can do, as I received this response from Don Web:
"It is not feasible to maintain the functionality of MX records if you have a CNAME that redirects the domain to an IP different from the server hosting the account. This should be done using an A record. Please inform the support team at 'railway.app' of this so they can consider it."

Hello,
We have no current considerations to allow the use of A records instead of CNAMEs.
You can work around this by using CloudFlare's nameservers with proxying enabled (the orange cloud)
This way the root of the domain will actually be an A record (the IP of CloudFlare's proxy) and that will not interfere with any MX records on the root.
