What is an MX field?

MX (Mail Exchange) records are DNS records required for the distribution of electronic mail to your mailbox.

An MX record indicates the mail server accepting incoming messages. If your MX records do not point to the right server, you will be able to send messages but not receive them.

If you subscribe to a pro email service, you will therefore need to change your MX records.


Example of an MX record

An MX record is made up of two parts, the domain name on the one hand and the priority on the other.

For example

0 mail.mydomain.com

  • The"0" defined at the beginning of the line is the priority given to your record. The closer the value is to"0", the higher the priority.
  • mail.mydomain.com is the mail server to which incoming emails should be sent.
