If you see this message while creating a free email account:
It means that your domain is not pointing to Hostinger at the moment. What can you do with this?
The easiest option - point your domain to Hostinger and wait for propagation to be completed.
If you want to only use mail services with Hostinger and the domain name to be pointed elsewhere:
- Open the service where your domain is pointed to.
- Open DNS zone editor (it may have a different name based on the service) and change the following records:
Record type: TXT
Host: @
Value: the TXT record that is displayed in the grey field of the warning message
TTL: leave the default
To successfully send and receive emails, you need to add Hostinger MX records as well.
NOTE: When you update your domain's DNS zone, you will need to wait up to 24 hours until changes are fully propagated 😊
