Cpanel, MX Records, 3rd Party DNS
Apr 4, 2007
I use a third-party DNS host for a domain hosted on a shared server with cpanel. The A record point to that server so that the website on it is shown, and for e-mail, it uses a different server.
How does the domain have to configured on the cpanel server, the one that hosts the website, so that e-mail originating from within it go to the external mail server?
And a related question - after the necessary changes are done, can the cpanel server still send e-mail with that domain name (say, if a script attempts to send an a message)?

Can anyone recommend a hosted third-party spam filtering service for cPanel servers?
Most of the servers are reseller based, and I don't see myself or my team having to enter each individual email address into the service.
With that said, is there any service where you can just point the MX records to it, it would scan the email, and then deliver it?

I seem to be experiencing some difficulty adding SPF records via "Edit DNS Zone". When adding these records and checking them with several SPF record checkers, it always reports a record such as the following:
“v=spf1
Which turns out to be invalid, and definitely not the record I had specified. The record I specified looks like the following:
"v=spf1 a mx ip4:XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX ~all"
XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX being a valid IP, of course.
Is there known issues when adding these types of records via WHM?
And to make it clear, I have added these records as TXT type, with and without the quotes.

I have a Cpanel DNS-ONLY secondary nameserver at ns2.frozenblues.com that returns A records but does not return MX records, despite the zone files having correctly synched with the primary WHM (11.11.0)/Cpanel server (at ns1.frozenblues.com). Again, the files in /var/named are all correct on the DNS-ONLY server incuding the MX info, and it is returning A records, but not returning MX.
