I paid weebly.com for a starter account and contacted dynadot to help me get my domain from here to weebly.com and the email that dynadot gave me with my domain name doesn't seem to work now that I've started using the domain name on weebly. why is this?

You removed the Basic Hosting settings you had previously set up to point to Weebly, so your email stopped working. You can set your MX records to get the email working again.

How do I set up my MX records so I can use my domain email if I'm using DNS?

MX records are mail exchange records that specify the mail server responsible for accepting email messages for your domain.

To set up your MX records using our DNS, please follow the instructions below:

Sign in to your Dynadot account.
Check the box next to your domain name(s) and click on the "Action" button.
Choose "DNS Settings" from the "Action" list.
On the DNS Settings page, select "Dynadot DNS" from the drop-down menu.
Under the "Domain Record (optional)" section, select "MX" from the "Record Type" drop-down.
Enter your MX record in the "IP Address or Target Host" box, and the record's priority in the "Distance" box.
Press the "Save Settings" button to save your changes.
