What is an MX record?
MX stands for "mail exchanger," also known as a Mail Relay record. When you attempt to send a message to your email address (yourname@yourcompany.com), the MX record tells other sites where your mail should be sent. This is similar to how website addresses & DNS records work. In fact, an MX record is part of the DNS record and indicates to servers where to go to locate your website.
