A records are used to map domain names and server IP's. For instance, www.domain.co.uk OR sub.domain.co.uk can be mapped to an IP address.
MX Records are an entry in the domain DNS that identifies the mail server that is responsible for handling email for that domain name. You can have multiple MX records for a same domain and it will check for MX record set with priority.
A CNAME, or Canonical Name, record is an entry within the Domain Name System (DNS) that specifies where a user can find your web pages, or any other URL.
Your A, MX and CNAME records can be changed at any time. Simply submit your request to the Helpdesk and our engineers will ensire that your DNS records are set correctly.
The Custom DNS feature is provided at no additional cost with all domain names. For more assistance visit the Domain Help Sheet. If you have problems setting up your forwarding contact our Helpdesk.
