As a Customer, you can change your MX Entries as you need. Please log into the cPanel to edit these by clicking the MX Entry icon in the Mail section. When multiple MX entries are required with same priority, please contact Tech support via a ticket as described below.
A RECORD, cNAME, TXT: Please request DNS changes by opening a new ticket in the helpcenter. To help expedite the process, please include the last four digits of the credit card used for the most recent **WEB HOSTING** payment or last four characters of the hosting password inside the body of the ticket.
Please format the ticket as follows for quickest service:
    Hello Support, My main domain is "Insert Main Domain" and the last 4 of my credit card are as follows 0123.
    • A record: friends.yourdomain.com -> 74.220.195.50 (always point to an IP address)
    • CName: blog.yourdomain.com -> ghs.google.com
    • MX Entries: yourdomain.com -> 5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
    • MX Entries: yourdomain.com -> 5 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
Note: Our servers do not support Reverse DNS Lookup. This means that a Reverse DNS Lookup will not resolve to the domain name, but instead to the server that the hosting account is on. We do have TXT entries and PTR entries to help with SPF records when sending email. This shows the email was legitimately sent from a Hostmonster server, where the domain will be listed if a Reverse DNS Lookup is done.We do allow customers to request custom TXT entries in order to help fight against spam. Both SPF records and DKIM records are TXT entries in a zone file. Unfortunately at this time we do not support custom PTR or SRV records for customers. If you require custom entries like this you will need to subscribe to a third party DNS service (examples are dyndns.com or dnsmadeeasy.com).
