I don't know where you host your dns records but there is nothing shown on the test results at this site: https://www.ultratools.com/tools/dnsLookup - check it yourself. I'm assuming you've posted the correct name?

Other than the fact your domain name points to your IP address there are no other records that would apply to a mail server and therefore you will not receive any mail from the internet.
