How to modify your MX records for Google Suite Mail?

Once you sign up your domain for G Suite, you will have to change its MX records to start using their email services.

If you are a SiteGround customer this can be easily done via cPanel -> MX Entry.

You will need to assign the following MX records for your domain (make sure that you remove any previous MX records):

Priority          Mail Server
1                      ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
5                      ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
5                      ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
10                    ALT3.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
10                    ALT4.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.

The above instructions are in full compliance with the official G Suite instructions and have been adapted to work with cPanel. They will require 24 hours to propagate and take effect. After that your mail will be handled exclusively by G Suite.

Setting up your email is easy when you have the right host by your side. If you need a reliable partner to help you resolve email issues and provide expert support, check out our email hosting services.
