MX (Mail Exchange) records<\/b> are like postal addresses for emails. They tell email servers where to deliver emails for a domain, helping to ensure that emails reach the correct destination.<\/p>\n

If you use Google Workspace<\/b><\/a> email with your domain<\/b><\/a>, the following MX records should be present in your domain’s DNS zone.<\/p>\n

If you signed up to Google Workspace before<\/b> April 2023:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
Priority<\/th>\nHost<\/th>\nValue (Mail server)<\/th>\nTTL<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
1<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
5<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nALT3.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n
10<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nALT4.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

Or, if you signed up to Google Workspace after<\/b> April 2023:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n\n
Priority<\/th>\nHost<\/th>\nValue (Mail server)<\/th>\nTTL<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
1<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nSMTP.GOOGLE.COM<\/td>\n3600<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

You should only have the values for your active email service<\/b> added to your domain. If you encounter any other values, delete them<\/b>, making sure to leave only those for Google Workspace.<\/p>\n

SPF Record<\/h3>\n\n\n\n\n
Type<\/th>\nHost<\/th>\nValue<\/th>\n<\/th>\n<\/tr>\n
SPF \/ TXT<\/td>\n@<\/td>\nv=spf1 include:_spf.google.com ~all<\/td>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n

 <\/p>\n

SPF is harder for attackers to imitate a domain, reducing the likelihood of these attacks. Improving email deliverability: Domains<\/strong><\/a> without a published SPF record may have their emails bounce or be marked as spam.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
