in order to use Office 365 exchange, it require to use MX record , CNAME record. However, when I use the custom DNS setting, it only allow either CNAME or MX record but not both.

Here is the article from Microsoft.

found out that you need to use the subdomain records

Subdomain = autodiscover
Type = CNAME
IP add = Autodiscover.outlook.com
