Email suddenly stopped working
My domain and attached email for my shop is Godaddy. I use liquid web for hosting. I have had my email set up with my domain email ([email protected]) for just over a year now, with almost no hitches at all, except that this happened once before. I heard that godaddy has hidden limits on emails and some seem to get lost for no reason, which is really REALLY frustrating.
I use an email puller for my various email accounts (thunderbird email client). It's never had problems, except when I change my email passwords, which I didn't, and I would have received an error. I double-checked by directly logging into my godaddy email from their website. Oddly enough, a couple emails have come through over the past few days, but none from my shop. However, I am receiving Paypal notices of customer orders... just no invoices or anything else.
I am really worried about what might be going on. I thought of calling godaddy, but I have friends who were given the run-around regarding email troubles. So I figured I would check here first. Here are my email settings in my zen cart. Like I said before, this has been working fine for just over a year, and I have not touched any settings since I first set up my shop.

As you can see (even though it's being hidden with hash tags in this post), I use a gmail address for email copies so I can see invoices and whatnot coming through, to HOPEFULLY help prevent the hidden email limit that godaddy has. Previously I had all emails set to [email protected] and there were just too many emails sent, I guess.
I'm not even getting invoice copies. Nothing is being sent to me at all, except notices from Paypal when I'm paid.
Any help would be appreciated.
edit It's important to note that I cannot move email/domain providers right now, though I hope to soon as I am very tired of godaddy. I simply need help to make sure my emails can get through until the move can be done.
