Hi,
we've had knot in use for years now and are still using version 1.6.7. I
We've recently migrated e-mail to exchange online. I've been asked to update the
MX record in the zone to point to mail.protection.outlook.com.
I initially tried to simply replace the current value by mail.protection.outlook.com but
then the name of the zone is added to the value. This is not a valid record.
I see no way to update the MX record to this value. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for the feedback.
Kind regards,
Dirk

Hello Dirk,
for host names outside of the specified zone you must use a FQDN name,
i.e. a host name ending with a dot (in you case
"mail.protection.outlook.com.").
