Point email to Google Workspace (Google Apps)
Update your cPanel MX records and email routing to send your domain's mail through Google Workspace.
To route your domain's email through Google Workspace, you need to replace the existing MX records in cPanel with Google's mail server entries, then set your domain to use a remote mail exchanger.
Before you start, make sure your Google Workspace account is set up and your domain is using Kualo's nameservers.
Delete your existing MX records
- Log in to cPanel.
- In the Mail section, click MX Entry.
- Scroll to the MX Records table at the bottom of the page.
- Click Delete next to each existing record until the table is empty.
Add Google's MX records
Add each of the following records one at a time using the Add New Record form. Enter the priority and destination, then click Add New Record before moving on to the next.
| Priority | Destination |
|---|---|
| 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 priority values and hostnames above reflect Google's current recommended MX record set. Check the Google Workspace admin help for the latest values if you are unsure.
Set email routing to remote
- Still in cPanel, go to MX Entry (or navigate back if you left the page).
- Under Email Routing, select Remote Mail Exchanger.
- Click Change.
Allow a few hours for DNS changes to propagate. Once they have, all email for your domain will be routed through your Google Workspace account.
