20i mail server adding noreply

A great topic!

When setting up a mail server using 20i, you may want to add a "no-reply" email address to prevent spam and unwanted emails from being sent from your domain. Here's a step-by-step guide on how to add a no-reply email address to your 20i mail server:

Prerequisites:

1. You have a 20i account and have set up your mail server.
2. You have a domain name registered with 20i.

Step 1: Create a new email address

Log in to your 20i control panel and navigate to the "Email" section. Click on "Create Email Address" and enter the following details:

• Email address: [email protected] (replace yourdomain.com with your actual domain name)
• Password: Choose a strong password for the no-reply email address.
• Alias: Leave this field blank.

Step 2: Configure the no-reply email address

Once you've created the no-reply email address, you'll need to configure it to prevent it from receiving emails. To do this, follow these steps:

1. Log in to your 20i control panel and navigate to the "Email" section.
2. Click on "Email Settings" and then select "Email Forwarding".
3. Click on the "Add Forwarding" button.
4. Enter the following details:
   • Forward to: [email protected]
   • Forward type: "Discard"
   • Forward reason: "No reply email address"
5. Click "Save" to save the changes.

Step 3: Update your DNS records

To ensure that the no-reply email address is recognized by the internet, you'll need to update your DNS records. You'll need to add a TXT record to your domain's DNS settings. The TXT record should contain the following information:

v=spf1 a mx include:spf20i.com ~all

You can add this record using your domain registrar's DNS management tool or by contacting their support team.

Step 4: Verify the no-reply email address

To verify that the no-reply email address is working correctly, you can send an email to the address from an external email account. If the email is successfully delivered and marked as "undeliverable" or "bounce", then the no-reply email address is set up correctly.

That's it! You've successfully added a no-reply email address to your 20i mail server. This will help prevent spam and unwanted emails from being sent from your domain.
