 +When we bought our email server, we got an email, and this email contained information such as <color #ed1c24>MX Records</color>, here is what that part of the email said.
 +\\ 
 +    DNS MX RECORDS:
 +    pixel.mxrouting.net (Priority 10)
 +    pixel-relay.mxrouting.net (Priority 20)
 +    (These above are both record type "MX" and should have the name value set to either @ or blank, not a subdomain).
 +\\ 
 +Simply put, we add these two MX Records to our DNS.
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Open the DNS Settings for your domain.
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +Fill out the parameters for the two MX Records, click <color #ed1c24>ADD</color> after each one.
 +\\ 
 +\\ 
 +{{ :mail001u.png?700 |}}
 +\\ 
 +{{ :mail001v.png?700 |}}
 +\\ 
 +You should now see the two MX Records at the bottom of the page in your <color #ed1c24>Current Records</color> section.
