  1. Hi All,

    I have just signed up as a Google Premier Apps user, and am going through the process of hooking up the email...I have just gone through the MX Record setup as per these instructions....

    http://community.discountasp.net/showthread.php?t=7377

    Just a couple of questions....

    1. Looks like we now do not need to add the trailing period (comes up with an incorrect domain name when u try to add the "."

    2. Is anyone familiar with what we should do with the following A Records (in A Record Manager)...

    webmail.quanttrading.com 64.79.170.133 3600
    smtp.quanttrading.com 64.79.170.133 3600
    pop3.quanttrading.com 64.79.170.133 3600
    imap.quanttrading.com 64.79.170.133 3600

    I suspect...we should leave them alone!

    cheers, Amos

    - no. you do not need the trailing period; that's a Bind format.

    It really up to you.. you can leave them there or remove them.
