- The next step is to update the Mail Exchange (MX) records of your domain to point to the XSEG service domain.
- Please
ensure that you replace your old domain MX records with XSEG service domains according to your
preferred region.

Background: The MX record is responsible for specifying the mail server for incoming and outgoing messages of a domain. A domain can have several MX records pointing to different mail servers. When an email is passed to/from your domain, the mail is handled by the first available mail server as per your priority. You can define new MX records or change mail server priority as required. |

Note - Mail server MX records. Xcitium / ITarian customers should use the EU or US service server URL based on their location preference during sign up. |
