Re: Domain Change

The only A Record you will change is your WWW record and if you choose for the none @yourdomain.com in case someone forgets the www.yourdomain.com. If DYNdns.org is handling your External DNS, have them change this to your new IP of the website. As for your MX Record, you should have an A Record (mail.yourdomain.com) pointing to your existing IP pointing. The does not change. Verify at www.dnsstuff.com or give me the domain and I can check for you.

While I appreciate that response I am not confident in it as my mx points to
domain.com and all my other services are set up as cnames. That being the
case is still correct that I will not have to change anything else?
