Donating MX Entries

Don't understand instructions!

Author: S.Wright4 (26 Aug 10 2:11am)

Hi there,

Very sorry to start this thread but I'm a bit lost about donating an MX record. I've signed up to project honeypot to try and stop spam users registering for my Joomla website as a message board on Joomla stuff recommended that I do.

I have cPanel 11.25. I've set up a subdomain. But I really don't get what I'm supposed to do next.

Can someone please help and give me step by step instructions? I assume I go into MX Records but then I'm lost.

Thank you!

1) Goto Mail->MX Entry
2) Select the Domain you want to register
3) Add New MX Entry as mx1.easymx01.com with priority 0
4) IN MX Records, delete other records or increase its priority
5) Select Automatically Detect Configuration: Remote (recommended)

Its done

Step 5 fixed it for me. Thanks.

Also, if you have an A record named "mail", delete it.
