Newbie question here. Raq4
I have a client (from the other side of my business) that would like me to host just his companys e-mail (long story).
What do I need to do for that?
Im thinking that I just need to set up a domain on the raq just as I woudl if I were hosting there website. But just using mail as the hostname. ie mail.domain.com. and have the "web" hosting company point mail.domain.com to the IP I set mail.domain.com up on.
Is this right? It just seams to simple. I have to be missing something.

Thanks in advance guys.

Eugene

Eugene,

You are correct, on the RAQ4 you would setup the domain as you have indicated and have the primary DNS point to your server as the primary MX and that should be it.
