Check your MX-record first, then check ports pop/imap

I don't want to double post but I have a similar issue.
I could send but not receive.
This is what I have in my NameCheap.
Am I missing something?

Hi,
It does not have the option to choose MX record. Nothing in the drop down menu.
What do I do?

Check open ports or not.
And if you send mail to "your server", what answer you get - success/error/silence?
