Thank you so much for this video, I was struggling with this, you are the only one on TH-cam who explains this correctly. : - )

[@HoganChua]

You're very welcome!

[@bros6043]

Thank you for this! Huge help. I successfully added my Gmail after using it with a previous host. This saved me a HUGE amount of time

[@pamelalindquist3332]

THANK YOU THANK YOU!!! This was THE BEST, EASIEST explanation I have found! THANK YOU!

[@davidhill2199]

Thanks so much for this, Hogan. Super clear tutorial and just what I needed for getting my email switched over from siteground to cloudways rackspace.

Hi Hogan! Great tutorial. I was wondering if this would also work with Elastic email? I'm not sure the difference between elastic and rackspace is. And also, are we able to set the branded email, so with the domain after the @ as the default in our Gmail? How do we do that, if possible?

[@lusean193]

hi Hogan all i have is. Your previous mailbox request is pending validation. You would be able to create additional mailboxes after the previous request is validated. how long should this last? many thanks

[@nadiabenites_]

Hi! great explanation. but how about configure SMTP service to setup outgoing email delivery on your Server? what are the steps for that when creating an email with Rackspace?

[@dorstox]

Did you ever find out?

Hi Hogan,
It was a great share! I have been using Siteground for a while, and my partner just switched to Cloudways. He has been facing some troubles with setting up emails, and I think your tutorial will definitely help him a lot. Since he prefers using a Gmail account too, I think he would like to forward his emails to his Gmail account. Thanks a lot for sharing this method. I will definitely share this tutorial with him and help him with email set-up in Cloudways.

If you change hosting provider in the future, what happen for these emails you just set up?

[@dhanaselfcare1604]

Very helpful! Thank you.

[@gerigame2995]

Hi! If I use Rackspace is that shared IP or dedicated IP?

[@joshfidel4454]

Amazing, thank you!

[@jiangtao2990]

informative!

[@annahsu34]

Does anybody know how to change the email logo in 9:31 show?

[@5polar]

Nice one!
Do you know if there any way to forward the income mail into a certain tag that been created at the mailbox? (Gmail)

[@FranciscoJavierBustos]

Excelente info

[@paulugochuckwunwokeji627]

Is this method unlimited? How many emails can i send per day?

[@shahidsardar1058]

Thanks Hogan, It was really helpful. I'd been looking for this info for hours and finally landed to your video. I was just confused where to put txt and other non mx record as mail setting does not have that option. I have my domains at Namecheap. May Allah reward you.

[@HoganChua]

Glad it helped!
