MX/DNS records

Mail Exchanger (MX) records are the part of DNS records which direct email to specific servers on the Internet. Before Hushmail can receive mail for your domain, you’ll need to configure the MX records.  These can typically be changed through your web host or domain registrar’s control panel.

Please note:

1. Changing the MX records will not affect your existing web hosting.
2. It is not necessary to point your DNS records (i.e. A records) to a different IP address, or to transfer existing web hosting.
3. Hushmail Business subdomains (yourname.hush.com) require no configuration on your part.
4. When you add our MX records don't forget to remove the old MX records that are already listed at your domain registrar.
