Choose the option that best matches how you use your domain. We recommend that you work with a dedicated subdomain. When using domain delegation, setup and ongoing maintenance are easiest for you.
-
Subdomain with delegation: Use a dedicated subdomain only for Inxmail and delegate it to Inxmail. Inxmail manages and updates your DNS records.
Pros and cons
Pros
-
Setup takes very little effort.
-
You do not need to maintain the setup on an ongoing basis.
-
You keep this setup separate from your general email traffic, such as personal emails or business emails.
Keep in mind
-
You need to create a subdomain that you use exclusively for Inxmail.
-
-
Subdomain via alias: Use a dedicated subdomain only for Inxmail and set it up via alias. This automatically applies the DNS records required by Inxmail.
Pros and cons
Pros
-
You keep this setup separate from your general email traffic, such as personal emails or business emails.
-
You are in charge of your own domain without having to delegate it to Inxmail.
Keep in mind
-
You need to create a subdomain that you use exclusively for Inxmail.
-
Without delegation, you need to configure the alias for the Inxmail records yourself.
-
-
Main domain or subdomain via alias: Use this option only if you also use the domain outside Inxmail or if your main domain must remain visible as the sending address.
Pros and cons
Pros
-
You can continue using an existing domain.
-
You can use your main domain or a subdomain you are already using as the visible sending address.
Risks
Only for experienced admins:-
Setup is significantly more complex.
-
The risk of errors and reputation problems is higher.
-
Reputation problems can affect your entire email traffic, for example personal emails or business emails.
-
Recommendation
In many cases, Subdomain with delegation is the easiest option. If you cannot or do not want to use domain delegation, we recommend Subdomain via alias as an alternative.
