Use my own domain

Can I use the domain of my choice with Runbox?

To host your domain's mail with Runbox, you can add it from the Account:Email Hosting screen. You must change your domain's MX records to mx.runbox.com (at your domain host), after doing this.

You can use the "Catch all" feature or create up other addresses on your domain, which can forward to different Runbox accounts if desired.
