Godaddy-hosted email (if you choose to host your email through godaddy) is hosted under the "secureserver.net" domain. In fact, the addresses you configure into your mail client are pop.secureserver.net, imap.secureserver.net, smtp.secureserver.net, etc.
If you configured your Godaddy webmail (for perhaps some other domain) to pull in mail from your Gmail account, then you will see it show up as going to secureserver.net rather than whatever domain your mail is registered under.
And if you didn't do it, someone else did. Hackers frequently go through intermediary services to mask their identity. This is as likely an answer as any.
So... change your password

secureserver.net is the name GoDaddy use as the reverse DNS for IP addresses used for dedicated/virtual server hosting. The owner of the IP address 97.74.115.169 is a GoDaddy customer. From looking at domains hosted on that address, it may be packetfusion.com.
So perhaps someone compromised their server and is using that as a proxy to access your account, or maybe someone is using whatever service it is they provide to access mail. Either way you would have to follow it up with them and not GoDaddy.
I setup this domain a long time ago, and some of the email addresses seem to have stopped working. It should have email forwarding to a central email address, and I think it should have been a catch-all. I am trying to figure out where to get into the email configuration to see what the situation is.
The domain was originally registered with 123-reg, but I am in the process of moving away from them since email forwarding is no longer included in the domain registration cost.
I know it's not the 123-reg mail servers (they are mx0.123-reg.co.uk and mx1.123-reg.co.uk), but I can't think who else it would be!
The MX servers (per the title) are set to smtp.secureserver.net and mailstore1.secureserver.net. My research suggests those belong to godaddy, but I don't have a godaddy account.
Does anyone have any ideas? Thanks!
I was directed by GoDaddy support to recover an account through this website:
https://supportcenter.secureserver.net/accountrecovery/account-access
Is this legit/safe? The help button, privacy policy, and "do not sell my personal information" lead nowhere, which makes me suspicious.
GOT IT!!! Need to remove the line "client.EnableSsl = true;" because godaddy does not accept secure connections.
I had a similar issue. In my case setting the value of client object's .Port public property was the problem.
Right now, I am not setting that value at all and emails arrive quickly, even with attachments.
