MX Record etc etc
Yo all
I hope someone can reassure me just to wait ........!
This morning I deleted my webhosting account - this deleted my website and my email (the two could not be separate).
I then set up a new email account with my former host using the same address and domain name. I wanted to do this because they offer email 'exchange server' services which are quite useful for the small business.
I have a new website with a new provider which has been uploaded ....
Now, I went to my domain name provider and changed the following:
1) A record - now points to the new site - waiting to propagate
2) MX record - point back to former email provider (who I now have new email account with)
At present my email is not working. I can email my self - that works. If I email out I get a ;550-Verification failed for <me@mysite.co.uk>>. Also if I try to email myself from another account it also fails ....
The question is : do changes to the MX record take time to propagate like other regular webpageââ‚à ‚¬Ã¢â€žÂ¢s - if so I guess I just have to wait. I had assumed that although I had a new email account, as it was the same phyiscal address it would not need to propagate ???
cheers
Mark
