Managing MX Records for a .TEL Domain Name
A .TEL domain name allows you to send and receive emails like
other domain name extensions. However, since Web Hosting of a .TEL domain name is quite
different from hosting of other domain name extensions, DNS Records for a .TEL domain name cannot be
managed in the usual manner.
Scubez.Net allows you to configure
the necessary MX Record(s) for your .TEL domain name
from the Domain Management interface itself, within your Control Panel. Listed
below are processes to add, modify or delete MX Records for a .TEL domain name:
Adding an MX Record
- Login to your
Control Panel, search for the domain name and proceed to
the Order Details view.

- Click the Manage MX Records link. This will bring up the Manage MX Records view.
- Provide the following details and click the Add button:
- Host Name: Enter a Fully Qualified Domain Name like
mail.isp.com. Note that a Fully Qualified Domain Name always ends with a
"." in the end.
- Priority: An MX Record has a Preference number indicating
the order in which the email server should be used (only relevant when
multiple MX Records are defined for the same domain name). Email servers
will attempt to deliver email to the server with the lowest preference
number first, and if unsuccessful, continue with the next lowest and so on.
- TTL: This
is the Time To Live for this Record. Any Server which once queries this
Record will query it again after this time interval.
