Let's route your emails to Gmail

To activate Gmail, follow the instructions to update your domain email settings, which are called MX
records.

MX records are like a post office for your email. When someone sends you an email, your MX
records know how to deliver it to your Gmail inbox. Learn more

1. Go to your domain host's website in a new tab

We've detected that your domain host is Cloud Flare. Sign in to add verification codes to your
domain settings.

Cloud Flare

Domain host for edubrand.id

GO TO CLOUD FLARE

2. Sign in to your domain host

a. In the Cloudflare site, at the upper right, click Log In.


b. Under Log in to Cloudflare, enter the email address and password that you created when
you purchased your domain from Cloudflare. Then click Log In.

If you don’t know your login information, recover your Cloudflare password or contact Cloudflare
support.

3. Go to your MX records

a. From the Cloudflare dashboard, click Select Website (or click your domain name, if it is
listed).
b. At the top of the page, click DNS.

4. Add MX records for Gmail

a. In the DNS Records section, from the Type drop-down list, select MX.


b. Click the Value field.

The Add Record: MX content window opens.

c. In the Points To field, enter ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM. Don’t include a full stop at the end of


the record.
d. In the Priority field, enter 1.

e. Click Save
f. Follow these same steps to add the MX records shown in this table. Start from the top of the
table and enter as many as you have room for. Don’t include a period at the end of the MX record.

ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM 5

6. Add MX verification record

Add another MX record just like you did above. Only this time:
 In the Server field, paste the MX verification record that you copied above.
 In the Priority field, enter 15.
Tip: If there isn't room for another MX record, remove the last MX record that you added above (the
last one in the table). Then add this MX verification record.
