1. MX Records
The first step in configuring your DNS is updating your MX records. MX records tell the world which server should receive e-mails destined for your domain, and deliver it to you. You can usually find the MX records in the same Control Panel you use for managing your DNS.
You should first remove all other MX records and then add the following, with the specified preference:
|
Name |
Preference |
|---|---|
|
mx.emailarray.com |
5 |
|
mx2.emailarray.com |
10 |
2. Webmail Record
In order to take advantage of our Branding features, you must configure CNAME records within your domain for the webmail host.
You must create:
|
CNAME |
Forwards to |
|---|---|
|
webmail.<yourdomain.com> |
webredirect.emailarray.com |
3. Autodiscover Records
In order to simplify the configuration of modern e-mail clients such as Outlook and Thunderbird, as well as all your mobile devices, you can now use our Autodiscover & Autoconfig web services to automatically configure these clients. You have to add two *A* records in the DNS for your domain:
Basic and Enhanced Accounts:
|
A record hostname |
Points to |
|---|---|
|
autodiscover.<yourdomain.com> |
69.28.212.195 |
|
autoconfig.<yourdomain.com> |
69.28.212.195 |
Exchange Accounts:
|
A record hostname |
Points to |
|---|---|
|
autodiscover.<yourdomain.com> |

5. SPF Record

You must use the following SPF record.
v=spf1 include:emailarray.com -all
