The system will deliver mail to the local mailbox instead of a remote mail service. Also, choose this option if your hosting provider deleted the domain\u2019s DNS zone. You can use this option if the highest priority MX record points to an IP on the local server. The system will deliver to your local server mailbox.<\/p>\n<p>If your site uses Verpex Hosting name servers and you are experiencing problems with e-mail, you can manually select this setting from Cpanel \u00bb Email \u00bb Email Routing to help troubleshoot the configuration.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Remote Mail Exchanger<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Remote Mail Exchanger setting causes the server to never accept mail for the domain.<br \/>\nIt manages all mails sent to your domain remotely and delivers them to the mail service determined by the domain\u2019s MX record. (For example, if Google is your mail service, it will deliver the emails to the mailbox on Google&#8217;s servers rather than your local mailbox.)<\/p>\n<p>The system assigns the lowest priority value to servers with this setting. This option can be used to point your emails to a different email server.<\/p>\n<p>Please note that you must configure the primary MX record to point to the appropriate exchanger for this to work, Use this if there are no MX records that point to an IP on the server. Follow these steps to know how to edit MX . If your site does not use Verpex Hosting name servers, you must select this setting.<\/p>\n<p>You can only choose between Local, Backup, and Remote Mail Exchanger in cPanel, you cannot use both.<\/p>\n<div class=\"apliy69e0ab2ad53eb\" >If you enjoyed this article, then you\u2019ll love Zalvis's Cloud Hosting platform.
