Hi, I have a main domain like example.tk hosted on my pc but I want to use heliohost for email hosting..

I have a subdomain like mail.example.com hosted on my account as main domain with only A record and mx record poiting to it.. Is it possible to create emails for the main domain and not subdomain..

Create MX records where ever your DNS is hosted and point them to johnny.heliohost.org or tommy.heliohost.org.

But the cpanel interface only allows email address to have the subdomain as user@mail.example.com and as user@example.com... All mails coming to example.com are routed through mail.example.com to my heliohost account on tommy but cpanel does not allow email id creation!

 

The details:

Domain hosted on heliohost: backend.developershub.tk

domain hosted elsewhere: developershub.tk

 

dns records:_

mx record from developershub.tk pointing at backend.developershub.tk

a record for backend.developershub.tk pointed at heliohost

 

Email id possible to create: user@backend.developershub.tk

Email id required: user@developershub.tk

 

All help would be appreciated!

Add developershub.tk to cpanel then. Just because cpanel knows how to handle requests for that domain doesn't mean the requests for that domain will go to Tommy.

How should I do that because my A records for developershub.tk are pointed at my IP to connect to my local server.

 

Sorry for the trouble and thanks for the help!

I solved the problem! Heliohost is the best!
