Re: [cobalt-developers] MX record error...



Brian,

For my MX records, I used the following information:

(This is for a Raq3 so I don't know if that is what you are using or not)

-  Host Name:  I left this field blank (If you put in www. then the email
address would be @www.yourname.com

-  Domain Name:  mydomain.com

-  Mail Server Name:  www.mydomain.com

-  Delivery Precedence:  High

I didn't put the IP Address anywhere in the MX record so maybe that is the
problem?

Michael
