Email Hosting through wordpress hosts

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,

    Go Daddy has assured me that I have to go through WordPress to update my DNS portals to point to Go-Daddy’s Microsoft 365 account. I am wondering if I should trust their advice, as I have yet to find a place on WordPress which will enable me to update this.

    This is the information I’ve received from Microsoft365 Go-Daddy: Is this something I can do on wordpress?

    At the bottom of the Records section, you can add your new records.
    TXT Record: Select TXT (Text), enter
    Host TXT Value TTL
    @ v=spf1 include:spf.protection.outlook.com -all 1 hour
    Click Add Record.
    CNAME: Select CNAME (Alias), enter
    Host Points to
    autodiscover autodiscover.outlook.com
    sip sipdir.online.lync.com
    lyncdiscover webdir.online.lync.com
    email email.secureserver.net
    msoid clientconfig.microsoftonline-p.net
    Click Add Record.
    MX Records: Select MX (Mail Exchanger), enter
    Host Priority Target
    @ 0 hookliftgo-com.mail.protection.outlook.com
    Click Add Record.
    SRV Records: Select SRV (Service), enter
    Port Protocol Name Service Priority Weight Target
    443 _tls @ _sip 100 1 sipdir.online.lync.com
    5061 _tcp @ _sipfederationtls 100 1 sipfed.online.lync.com
    Click Add Record.

  • Hi there,

    If you have a domain with the name servers pointed to us you do need to add those records to the domain here, yes. However, I don’t see any domains in your account. What is the domain which you’re trying to connect to your email?

    If you added domain mapping using a different account, please log in as that account and post here and I’d be happy to help you with this.

    If you’re logged in as the correct account you can also do it yourself from My Site ->Domains, using the instructions here:
