If you want to use a different email server, you will need to change the MX records & SPF records.
Please follow the following walkthrough to modify these records:
- 01. Go to cPanel > Zone Editor
- 02. Click on Manage next to your domain name
- 03. Delete any TXT records that starts with "v=spf1". This is the SPF record for our servers. If you want to use a remote server for email, you will need to delete it.
- 04. Delete any default MX records
- 05. Click on Add Record
- 06. Enter yourdomainname.com followed by a dot [.] [yourdomain.com.] under Name
- 07. Choose record Type: MX
- 08. Set a Priority: 0 if this is the default MX record to be used
- 09. Enter the MX server name next to Destination
- 10. Click on Add Record
Repeat the steps 05 to 10 to add more MX records.
