- Navigate to the Email panel and select Email Routing.
- On this page select the mail routing option that is best suited for you. In most cases, our clients will be using either:
- Local Mail Exchanger: This option is used when your email accounts are hosted on the same server as your website as mail will be routed from you website locally.
- Remote Mail Exchanger: This option is used when your email accounts are hosted on a different server than your website (Example: Enhanced Email Product, Office365, Google).
Once you have selected the option that is best suited for you click Change to save the selected settings.
