Title: E-Mail Fun??
Post by: Chris Woods on October 09, 2002, 01:22:59 AM

If I have a domain hosted by an ISP and I would like to control only e-mail with E-Smith 4.12 how would I go about doing that?

Thanks in advance

Chris

Hi Chris,

Speak to your Domain host and have them point the primary MX record to your IP Address (Yes, yes, MX records cannot point to IP addresses - your Domain host must probably create a CNAME or something for this to work). If you don't have a static IP, create a DynDNS account to track your Dynamic IP and ask your Domain host to point the primary MX of your domain to the DynDNS domain name your created.
