Add the exact MX server names and priorities supplied by your email provider.
Step by Step
- Get the required MX records from the email provider.
- Open the authoritative DNS zone.
- Remove old MX records only if the provider specifically instructs you to replace them.
- Add each required MX record.
- Enter the correct priority for each.
- Save and verify the records.
If That Doesn't Work
- Incorrect MX records can stop incoming mail.
- Do not point MX records to a website IP unless your mail provider explicitly requires it.
