If your domain is connected to Hostinger<\/b> via Hostinger nameservers<\/a><\/b>, you can automatically <\/b>set it up for Hostinger Email <\/b>👇<\/p>

In your Hostinger account, Navigate to the Emails<\/a> <\/b>section of hPanel and click anywhere <\/b>next to your domain name:<\/p>

<\/div>

2. Open the Domain settings<\/strong> section on the left and click on Connect automatically<\/b>:<\/p>

\"\"<\/div>

This way, the necessary MX<\/a><\/b>, SPF<\/a><\/b>, and DKIM<\/a><\/b> records are automatically<\/b> added to your domain’s DNS zone connecting to Hostinger Email server<\/b>.<\/p>

<\/div>

Click on Yes, proceed <\/b>to confirm and apply the changes to your domain!<\/p>

Additionally, we recommend you add a DMARC record<\/a> <\/b>to your domain’s DNS zone manually. While not mandatory for basic email operations, it’s highly recommended for enhanced security<\/b>. It helps protect your domain from phishing and spoofing attacks​​.<\/p>

\n

After making these changes, your email service might take up to 24 hours<\/b> to start working due to DNS propagation<\/a><\/b>. It’s a completely expected and unavoidable process, so you only need to give it some time. Once this period passes, you’ll be able to send and receive emails without any issues 💡<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
