Mail Server settings

[fly4food]

I had changed my MX mail settings to try out google apps, but decided it wasn't right for me so I changed them back.

Can anyone please verify that the correct (default) mail server settings under MX Settings (in WHM) are:

domain.com with a priority of 0

Thanks

The default should look like this:
example.com. IN MX 0 example.com.

I remember reading somewhere about the "." trailing the end of the domain name for MX functions, but I'm almost positive there was no "." trailing the domain before I touched it. I don't have it now and mail seems to be working fine?

Do I need to add that period?

Check WHM -> Edit Zone Templates. Look in the templates and you will se the correct entry.

In this case, yes, you should.
