2. Go to Domains and click on Manage Domains
3. Go to the domain you want to use to send emails and click on the DNS option present below it.
4. Scroll down and under the sub-heading 'Add a custom DNS record', click on the Go here option present below the Type field for adding MX records.
5. Click on the Edit button corresponding to the required domain.
6. Scroll down and under the subheading Custom MX Records, add the following value in the MX Record field(omit the quotes): "10 mx0001.neo.space"
Uncheck the option given below the MX fields and click on the button 'Change this domain to use Custom MX records now!'
7. Following the same steps as mentioned above, a second MX record needs to be added whose value is(omit the quotes): "20 mx0002.neo.space"
8. Now, again follow the second and third steps given above for adding SPF record. Once clicked on DNS option and the new page is loaded, scroll down and under the sub-heading 'Add a custom DNS record', make the following changes(omit the quotes):
