  Squarespace is incorrect.

  In the same place you edited the A and CNAME records are the MX records. It appears you had both the default listed in addition to this one:
  a4605b152f3bbe43bc3e967f8f1704.pamx1.hotmail.com

  I removed the default one. The other one appears to be for Hotmail/Outlook, so if that’s the correct one as given to you by Outlook, your e-mail should begin to be delivered as expected.

  If you have any questions or need anything else, please let me know.
