Using E-mail Services
You can use a number of different e-mail services with a single e-mail account. For
example, you can have an e-mail address that will accept mail as any standard
mailbox, forward to a number of recipients, and send an automatic response to the
original message sender.
If you are going to serve mailboxes under a specific domain with an external mail
server, follow these steps:
1 Go to Domains > domain name > DNS Settings.
2 In the Record type column, locate an MX record, and click the
respective link in the Host column on the left.
3 In the Enter mail exchanger box, type the external mail server's host
name, for example, mailserver.example.com.
4 Click OK.
5 Click Up Level to return to the domain management screen.
6 Click Mail.
7 Click Switch Off.
