MX (Mail eXchanger) RecordA host name can have one or more mail exchanger (MX) records. These records point to hosts that accept mail messages on behalf of the host. (A host can be a MXer for itself.) Format:
Host.domain.name. IN MX nn Otherhost.domain.name.
IN MX nn Otherhost2.domain.name.
The MX preference numbers nn signify the order in which mailers will select
MX records when attempting mail delivery to the host. The lower the MX number,
the higher the host is in priority.
