I have a functional mail server on my new VPS.
Now I want to propagate
mydomainname.com to email servers through the MX
record, so that people can find 'me(a)mydomainname.com'com'.
The domain registry has default values of 'mailstore1.secureserver.net'
and 'smtp.secureserver.net'.
I would like them to point at my VPS, but am unaware of the correct
strings, which would replace 'mailstore1...' and 'smtp...' above..
I would also like to minimise my sysadmin time, and so would like to
avoid to be forced to use bind etc on my VPS.
Can anyone help? TIA.
Who is your domain registered with?
Some registries will have a control panel where you can set up the MX
record. If this is the case then you can insert the IP address of your
VPS as the target of the MX record and then mail should start getting
delivered to port 25 on that machine.
Regards,
@ndy
