Email Server UK Very Flexible Full DNS Control

Saturday, May 24th, 2008

Scenario. The site of your client is going to be hosted on your server. They want also a personalized email address (info@company_name.com) but you don’t mean to run an email server on your server machine.

123-reg.co.uk (there are alternatives) gives you the solution:

  • Register the domain company_name.com (for example) with them
  • Order the email service from them for the same domain (company_name.com)
  • Use the DNS panel that comes with a domain registration
  • Point the MX record to their email server
  • Point the www subdomain (www.company_name.com) to your server outside their network
