    @/ Blank/ Domain name	mx.zoho.com	10
    @/ Blank/ Domain name	mx2.zoho.com	20
    @/ Blank/ Domain name	mx3.zoho.com	50

    The MX values in the above table are based on the generic configuration information. For more specific configurations particular for your domain refer to the Tools & Configurations section in the Admin Console.

Important Points:

• Ensure that you have deleted all the MX records related to your previous email provider. Any other existing MX record will conflict with Zoho Mail, affect email delivery, and result in permanent loss of emails delivered.
• The MX records that should be returned when you check in the MX Lookup tool should be
  • mx.zoho.com
  • mx2.zoho.com
  • mx3.zoho.com
• If you encounter any issues with email delivery or need clarification on configuring your MX records, please refer to our Troubleshooting MX Records help page for assistance.
