Exclamation Modify Mail Exchanger (MX Entry)

When I modify the mail exchanger, the mail accounts should be created on my server, or on the new mail server?

Thank you

A MX Entry only tells the mail where to go.
You use add/remove account when you want to create an account.

I know about add/remove, I just couldn't receive mail from a specific address and I wanted to use an external mail server, because everyone could receive from there except me!!

Thank you,

Manos

Well in that case. You must have an email account on the other server that you change the MX Entry to.

Thank you
I was reffering to your question. And the mail account must be created on the new server.
