This guide explains how to create an mx record for a VastyHost hosting account.
- Identify the exact domain and record or DNS setting you need to change.
- Open the DNS management area for the authoritative DNS provider.
- Add or edit the required record using the value supplied by the destination service.
- Save the DNS zone.
- Allow time for cached DNS information to expire, then verify the result from more than one network or DNS resolver.
Before you begin
Keep a current backup before changing production website files, databases, DNS, PHP settings, or application configuration. Exact menu names can vary slightly by Plesk and application version.
