How can I setup my email service to use GMail MX?


If you like to use GMail MX service, you need to make sure you point your MX records to the Google MX records. Please refer to the following guidelines:

1. Please login to your Control Panel -> Domain -> DNS Setting
2. Please make sure you add the following MX:

Priority Mail Server
1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
10 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM
10 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM

Note: The values in the Priority column show the relative priorities of the Google servers. The values do not need to be exactly those shown in the table; different domain providers have different systems for setting MX record priority. Regardless of the system, ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM must be the top priority record

3. Since you are using GMail MX records, please delete the default MX records created by the Control Panel.
