Managing MX entries

Click here to see this article as a Video Tutorial!

This demo assumes you've already logged in to WebHost Manager (WHM)

Now let's learn how to manage our MX entries

1) Click the DNS Functions link

2) Now click the Edit MX Entry link

Now select the account for which you want a customized MX entry

3) Select demo123.com, then click Edit

This is where you can specify a custom MX entry. You may want to do this for customers who want their email hosted elsewhere on another server. In those cases, you would enter the other server's IP address here and click save

We're not going to do this now, because we don't want to disturb the existing settings

This is the end of the tutorial. You now know how to manage MX entries in WHM. Remember that unless you want to point mail to a different mail server (not in this server), you never have to modify your MX settings
