How do I start using the Email Hosting service?

Once you have purchased the Email Hosting service from Dinsol.Co.In, you need to take the following steps to start using the service.

Change the Name Servers of your domain name

To activate the service, you need to modify the Name Servers of your domain name to Dinsol.Co.In's Name Servers.

Follow the process outlined below to know what Name Servers you need to use:

  1. Login to your Control Panel, search for the domain name for which you have purchased this service and proceed to the Order Details view. Click here to learn how >>
     
  2. Click on View Name Server Details. This will bring up the List Of Records view.
     
  3. Here, you would find the list of Name Servers you need to set for your domain name. Alternatively, if you wish to retain the Name Servers of your domain name instead of using our Name Servers, you would need to add all the Resource Records listed on this page on your Name Servers.
     

IMPORTANT
  • If you do not use Dinsol.Co.In's Name Servers or do not modify your domain name's MX Records to point to our servers, then you would not be able to receive email on your domain name. If someone tries to send an email to an email account on your domain name immediately after you have either modified your domain name's Name Servers or pointed your domain name's MX Records to ours, that person would encounter the following error message:

    Error: Sorry. Although I'm listed as a best-preference MX or A for that host,
    it isn't in my control/locals file, so I don't treat it as local. (#5.4.6)


    and no emails are delivered to that email account.

    This issue will get resolved automatically half an hour after either your domain name's Name Servers have been modified or your domain name's MX Records has been pointed to ours.

    where, orderid = Order Id of your Email Hosting Order (displayed under the Order Details view of your Email Hosting Order, within the Order Information section) Click here to read how to reach the Order Details view >>

    or

    These values need to be specified through the anti-spam service management interface.
