- This tutorial assumes you’ve already logged in to cPanel, and are starting on the home screen.
- Now let’s learn how to add an MX entry.
- Click the MX Entry icon.
- Setting a custom MX entry is useful if you want your email handled by another server, or if you want to setup a backup email server.
- Enter a priority number for the new MX record: the lower priority numbers will be tried first, followed by higher numbers.
- Then enter the new MX entry.
- Click “Add New Record”.
- That’s it! The new MX record has been added.
- So in this case, the default mybiz1234.com mail server will be tried first because it has a priority of 0 …
- … followed by the new email server mx1.myexchange.com, because its priority number is 1.
