External SMTP

[Vladimir]

Hello,

We have just finished the setup of the external mail server (different IP).

I have this red message in Cloudron, at the MX record:

**Hostname: @

Record type: MX

Expected value: 10 my.bgm.bg.

Current value: 10 mail.bgm.bg.**

The new mail server is mail.bgm.bg and the Cloudron is at my.bgm.bg.

What should be the correct value?

@vladimir Is the external mail server also Cloudron? Is your intent to use another mail server for the domain bgm.bg ?

Hello, the mail.bgm.bg uses iRedMail, not Cloudron.
But I would prefer to use Cloudron if it is possible to use it only as an external mail server ?

My intend is to use another mail server as the server on which is Cloudron we have some strange limitations on the emails.

@vladimir It looks like incoming email is turned on your Cloudron ? Since the mail server is external, you have to go to Email -> Domain -> Disable Incoming mail . I guess you had turned it on previously because it's disabled by default.
