    how to set google a MX under cpanel dns cluster ?

    Hi,

    i set a cpanel dns cluster and use "Add a DNS Zone" to add a domain on the cluster,
    because i want to host mail part on google a,
    and website on my server(it's ip may be 1.1.1.1),
    so,i modify the dns zone as following:


    ; cPanel first:11.30.1.4 (update_time):1331735620 Cpanel::ZoneFile::VERSION:1.3 hostname:ns1.xxx.com latest:11.30.6.4
    ; Zone file for 123.com
    $TTL 14400
    123.com. 1 IN SOA ns1.xxx.com. admin.xxx.com. (
    2011080423 ;Serial Number
    1 ;refresh
    1 ;retry
    1 ;expire
    1 ;minimum
    )
    123.com. 1 IN NS ns1.xxx.com.
    123.com. 1 IN NS ns2.xxx.com.
    123.com. 1 IN NS ns3.xxx.com.
    www 1 IN CNAME 123.com.
    ftp 1 IN CNAME 123.com.
    mail 1 IN CNAME 123.com.
    123.com. 1 IN TXT google-site-verification=m0EI4CgCwzNKbqgMh6tEaFwbHXTn2sFhE3vLlPTj6HU
    123.com. 1 IN MX 10 aspmx.l.google.com.
    123.com. 1 IN MX 20 alt1.aspmx.l.google.com.
    123.com. 1 IN MX 20 alt2.aspmx.l.google.com.
    123.com. 1 IN MX 30 aspmx2.googlemail.com.
    123.com. 1 IN MX 30 aspmx3.googlemail.com.
    123.com. 1 IN A 1.1.1.1



    * i set the ttl as 1,it is because i want to let it work quickly when i still test it now.
    * i try to test the mail route on other cpanel server's "Email Address Trace",some times,it still show with 1.1.1.1,not all google's record.

    is possible that i can let all the mail 100% go to google without my website server 1.1.1.1 ?


    thanx

    Have you set the name servers at your registrar? cPanels email trace will still rely on the DNS in resolv.conf

    Hi,

    my domain's nameserver is set on my dns cluster
    ns1.xxx.com
    ns2.xxx.com
    ns3.xxx.com

    i does not host the domain with my registrar and point A record to my dns cluster,so,my registrar already has no area to let me to set the records again.


    thanx

    Maybe you can share the correct domain and name server domain?

    I suggest you look at your domain on http://network-tools.com/

    Everything looks fine, I believe what you are seeing is due to caching.


    From an SSH terminal try the following.

    dig yourdomain.com MX @ns1.yournameserver.com

    and...

    dig yourdomain.com MX

    The name servers you are using are probably caching the MX records.
