What are MX records and why are they important?

• By

MX (Mail Exchange) records are a type of DNS record that specifies the mail server responsible for receiving email for a domain. They are essential because they ensure that emails sent to your domain reach the correct server and inbox.

Good to Know: Without the right MX records, emails sent to your domain could get lost or not be delivered at all. It’s crucial to ensure they’re correctly set.
