   Authorize our Email Server to Send/Receive Emails for your Domain Name

   Upon activating your Free Email Service, you need to enable our Email Server to be able to send/receive mails for your domain name. The simplest method to allow this is to modify your domain name's Name Servers to ours.

   You have the following options:

   • Change your Domain Name's Name Servers: You would find the list of Name Servers you need to set for your domain name to use the Email Service by clicking on the Name Server Details link under the DNS Management section.

     NOTE

     If the domain name is not registered with I ONLINE YOU MEDIA COMPANY, the Name Servers required to use the Email Service will be displayed. You need to set these Name Servers for your domain name through your domain name's registration service provider.

   • Change your Domain Name's DNS Records: If you wish to retain the Name Servers of your domain name, instead of using I Online You Media Company's Name Servers, you would need to create the DNS (MX, CNAME, TXT) Records on your existing Name Servers.

     The DNS records are listed in the Email Hosting Management interface under Mail > DNS Configuration.2
