Please, trying to setup Email to another host … no success
-
Please,
I’ve being trying to change the MX records to ipage.com. I click on DOMAINS > ADD EMAIL > OTHER > ADD DNS Records
Once there I added MX 1 MX.IPAGE.COM
But it did not work. Ipage says I must add 3 addresses : 66.96.142.50 , 66.96.142.51 and 66.96.142.52.
How do I add them ? I do not see how through the example WordPress gives. I know It may be obvious, but I have no clue …
I really appreciate for your help.

Hi timethief !
Thanks for replying.
I did go through this tutorial, but still do not know how to add the addresses. I want to keep my domain at WordPress but if I don’t have this fixed , I have no other choice. :(
Thanks anyway. :)

Here is a bit more info on the MX records and such – I think you have a formatting issue for starters

HI Auxclass!
I have WordPress since 2007 , but never done this DNS stuff.
My problem is exactly when following the tutorial.
Ipage gave me MX and addresses (3). But how to edit the DNS with this information ? That’s the sample:MX <pref> <host>.
TXT <text>
CNAME <subdomain> <host>.
A <subdomain> <IP>
SRV <_service._protocol> <priority> <weight> <port> <domain>Thanks for replying :)

The IPs are probably A Records, but your email provider is the only one that knows for sure.
I recommend asking them for the correct and complete DNS records.
