I have two websites, we’ll call them a.com and b.com. I already have a mail server running on b.com. What I would like to do is have any email sent to @a.com to be automatically forwarded to b.com. I edited the only MX record in the a.com DNS settings to be…
Priority: 10
Host: @
Points To: b.com
After setting this up and giving it time to propagate, mail sent to a.com does not go through and I get a “Message not delivered” response from my email client.
Thanks for any help!
The MX-Record does only tell the webserver where to deliver mail for that specific domain. So any mail sent to
user@a.comwill be sent to the mailserver atb.com, that does not mean that they get forwarded touser@b.com. You will have to configure your mailserver atb.comto accept mails for thea.comdomain.
