h4r00n Posted November 4, 2009 Share Posted November 4, 2009 Hi guys, I was hoping somebody can help me. I have my company email set up in google apps and it was fully functioning before I uploaded my website to my host and changed the DNS settings on my domain. Now when I send a mail to my company email address it does not receive. How can I fix this? Do I have to change the DNS settings back to default? If so then my website will not work on the host. The MX is all correct on the domain according to google apps. Thanks in advance Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/180334-solved-dns-setting-google-apps-host-domain/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel0 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 The MX is all correct on the domain according to google apps. Did you check that it's correct according to your DNS server? Google Apps won't keep checking if your MX records are correct. Once they're correct once it assumes that you don't screw it up. I have got a couple of domains on Google Apps that I once set up MX records for. They're not configured right now, but Google Apps doesn't care anyways. It still says it's active.

h4r00n Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 hi, i have the mx updated. I did however change the dns settings in my domain according to my host so the site is running. Has this got anything to do with it? Domain is 123reg and host is 5quidhost.

Daniel0 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 What's the domain name called? You can use dig (available in most Linux distributions) to find the DNS records for a domain name. Example for phpfreaks.com: daniel@daniel-laptop:~$ dig phpfreaks.com MX ; <<>> DiG 9.6.1-P1 <<>> phpfreaks.com MX ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 11949 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 7, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;phpfreaks.com.

It would be better to ask them. Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/180334-solved-dns-setting-google-apps-host-domain/#findComment-951672 Share on other sites More sharing options...
h4r00n Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 My domain name is www.jobjar.co.uk. Surely there must be a way to receive emails via google apps and have my host on a different server and the domain on another?

Daniel0 Posted November 5, 2009 Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hmm... Indeed the MX records are correct: daniel@daniel-laptop:~$ dig jobjar.co.uk MX ; <<>> DiG 9.6.1-P1 <<>> jobjar.co.uk MX ;; global options: +cmd ;; Got answer: ;; ->>HEADER<<- opcode: QUERY, status: NOERROR, id: 48180 ;; flags: qr rd ra; QUERY: 1, ANSWER: 7, AUTHORITY: 0, ADDITIONAL: 0 ;; QUESTION SECTION: ;jobjar.co.uk.

h4r00n Posted November 5, 2009 Author Share Posted November 5, 2009 Hi, thanks for all your help. The admin at 5quid host fixed it. Something about DNS propagation delay..
