Create a custom MX (for Synology NAS for example)

This guide explains how to create a custom MX record (in our example: mx.domain.xyz, assuming that domain.xyz belongs to you) to use in your NAS's MX configuration.

An MX record cannot be declared directly in the form of an IP address like 178.123.456.789, for example.

3. Select Domains (in the Web & Domaine universe).
4. Click directly on the name of the relevant object in the displayed table.

6. Click on the blue Add a record button.
