Changing MX record and effect on addon domains
Posted by crazyfish, 11-14-2008, 06:41 PM Changing MX record and effect on addon domains I'm looking at using the hotmail service with my own domain, to do so I have to change the MX record, when I looked at the DNS entry in whm I noticed that the only MX record was for the main domain and there were no for all the addon domains. I would assume that if I changed the record for the main domain the mail would stop working for all the addon domains, is this correct?
Posted by jphilipson, 11-14-2008, 06:54 PM addon domains will have their own DNS records... or are you referring to sub-domains? __________________I perform System Administration
Posted by crazyfish, 11-14-2008, 06:58 PM No I was referring to addon domains. I was in the wrong screen, I figured it out. I was staring at the DNS entry for the main domain instead of look at the MX record for the domain.
