Action
Find Domain MX Records
Tool to retrieve MX records for a domain in priority order. Use when you need to find a domain's mail servers (e.g., for email routing setup).
Why this helps
A small technical check can get forgotten when vendor intake involves several other decisions and handoffs.
- Retrieve mail servers and their priority order for a domain.
- Keep technical intake checks close to the vendor issue.
- Reduce the chance that a small verification step gets lost in handoffs.
