Manage MX records
This guide explains how to add or edit an MX record in the DNS (domain name) area managed on the Manager Infomaniak.
Preamble
- The type of registration is used to indicate which provider to manage the mail (= target).
- You should only change this type of registration if you have a particular configuration to set up (e.g. domain name at Infomaniak and email service at an external provider).
- There may be several MXs (for a second messaging service to take over in the event of a failure of the first) and in this case a number designates the priority of each of them (the smaller the number, the higher the priority).
MX for e-mail Infomaniak
Infomaniak automatically informs the MX needed to link your domain name and email, if they are managed in the same organization at the level of the Manager.
If your configuration requires you to add an MX record to direct mail traffic to Infomaniak, then specify the following MX:
mta-gw.infomaniak.ch
with priority 5.
On the interface of some providers like Gandi, it is necessary to add a point at the end of the MX record:
mta-gw.infomaniak.ch.
One SPF registration correct is also required for a smooth functioning of the Infomaniak messaging.
