Using your own email setup with a domain

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello,
    I have a domain that I host elsewhere with email boxes. Can I still use the email boxes while being able to use the domain name with your nameservers? I Want to use a custom domain, but the way that you have it set up the domain does not seem to work in my situation. Please help!

  • Hi Dakotah – You can, you just need to add the MX and other DNS records for your email host on our end. Here’s more information:

    If you need help formatting and entering the records once you have them, let me know! We also have some popular email host records stored, so let me know who your host is.
