Hello,

We are using your web hosting service with
domain name as ome.com.tr which is registered elsewhere.

We set up our own email server now and
would like to deliver email first to our mail
server and if it fails to yours.

so we would like to update mx record of our own
which is 85.100.125.181 with high priority
and remaining your mx record as a second one.

How can we do this ?
best regards

Do you want to forward emails to another email address if the primary mail host is unavailable? Usually if the primary mail host is unavailable, the email gets sent to the other MX record hosts, and those hosts just keep trying to send the email to the primary mail host.

But, if you set up to use us as a secondary mx record, we would just store your email on our email server.
