Afternoon. Right I need to setup a MX record for one of my mates so that email is pushed to the destination via smtp rather than collected from a pop3 box.
The domain has been registered with uk2 and they have the mx record address as uk2mxarray3.uk2.net reading as "MX 0 uk2mxarray3.uk2.net"
Now the only option I have is to change the address, and I've set this up as the static IP thats used onsite, so it now reads "MX 0 xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx"
Is this likely to work fine? I can't test it untill the uk2 nameservers restart over night but just wanted to make sure it was setup right first. Do I have to add anything to the exchange server that will be collecting the mail?
Thanks
