Hi,

am working on the migration but unclear about the DNS MX record switching:

Currently, our mail server (mail.mycomany.com) is hosted externally, is a POP3 server.

the MX record is something like

Hostname: mail.mycomany.com
IP: 123.456.789.100 (belongs to machine in the email hosting company)

The internal exchange server is setup but how do I request to change the mx record:

Hostname:

??? (don't know, there is nothing in the exchange specify that this server is mail.mycomany.com

IP:
888.888.888.100 (belongs to our company internet router with ISP)

What should be the host name? Is it the Active directory domain name configured as: mycomany_AD.mycompany.com?


Thank you very much.
