Set up dynamic free DNS MX records

Set up dynamic free DNS MX records

MX records are mail records. For example, an email sent to info@exampledynamic.com is delivered to the machine with IP 80.32.129.7 if that address is included in the MX records list of the domain exampledynamic.com. They are unrelated to A records, which are used for web browsing, FTP, etc. MX records are used only for email delivery.
To configure the domain's MX record, click the "+MX" button.

​The following option will appear:



To configure the MX record so that email is delivered to your domain’s web hosting, simply click the save button, as the default option is the most common. Your screen should look like the following:


​
Note: The priority in MX records is a numeric value (usually 10) used to define the order of preference when multiple entries are configured. For example, for the domain example.org, three machines have been configured as MX records. If one becomes overloaded or temporarily fails, emails will not be lost. Based on the priority values, the sending server will choose a destination server in order of preference. If one server does not respond, it will try the next one, and so on, until the email is delivered or no more MX records are available. You can configure as many MX records as needed, even pointing to the same A record, to balance the load between multiple mail servers.
