cPanel

cPanel Configure your MX Records to use Google Apps (Google Mail)

IMPORTANT:You must have a Google Apps Account set up already with e-mail address/es established.

Login to your cPanel

In the e-mail section select ‘MX Entry
and choose the mail account you wish to change.

Add the following new MX records.

PriorityRecord
1ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
10ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM
10ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM

 

Once done adding all the Google Apps records, delete the record still pointing to your domain (normally at the top of the list)

Once finished, select Remote Mail Exchanger from the Email Routing section and click Change

Job Done!

Remember you set your TTL to five minutes.

DNS servers around the world could still be showing the old value (information) from their cache for up to 5 minutes after the change.
In some instances DNS’s are set with their own TTL’s rather than your value. (less common these days) But, if you have the luxury of time allow your settings to propogate before trying to fix any non-existant problems.
