The Hostgator nameservers probably had a number of email-related DNS
related records they were hosting for you which stopped being accessible
when you switched to using GoDaddy's nameservers. Things should work
again if you copy those records over to GoDaddy. As Rich mentioned,
DMARC may be one of them. But you'll also at least want the MX record
and probably one or more TXT records (for SPF and DKIM). If you can
still sign into Hostgator, then you should be able to go into your DNS
settings and see all of the records which are there and copy them all
over.
