Summary

To receive emails on your own domain using Node.js, you need to install the required libraries, authenticate your domain with Twilio SendGrid, and set up an Express application that will receive incoming emails. You can use a tool like ngrok to create a public URL for your locally running application, configure the SendGrid Inbound Parse webhook, and set up an MX record in your DNS configuration. Once you have completed these steps, you can send test emails to receive responses from your Node.js code.
