Problem

What is a "MX" record?

Solution

"MX" ("Mail eXchanger") records are used to specify what server on the Internet is running e-mail software that is configured to handle e-mail for your domain.

If you are using proFilter then you need to create the following MX records

MX 10 mxXXXXX.smtp-engine.com.

MX 20 mxXXXXX.smtp-engine.com.

If you are using your own mail server remember to create the matching A record for that server and not a CNAME.
