To set up Hostinger Email on Outlook automatically, make sure that:
You have created an email account with Hostinger Email
Your domain is pointed to Hostinger
The correct Hostinger Email MX records are added to your domain's DNS zone
Then, proceed with the steps below 👇
Step 1 – Add CNAME records
To have Outlook configured automatically, add the following CNAME records to your domain’s DNS zone:
Name (host) | Target (points to) | TTL |
autodiscover.domain.tld | autodiscover.mail.hostinger.com | 300 |
autoconfig.domain.tld | autoconfig.mail.hostinger.com | 300 |
Make sure to replace the domain.tld with your actual domain name 💡
After creating the CNAME records, wait up to 24 hours for the changes to propagate worldwide. You may use the DNS Checker tool to check the progress of DNS propagation. Once the propagation is over, go to the next step.
Step 2 — Set up your email account on Outlook
In Outlook, add a new email account. The procedure may differ depending on your Outlook version. Make sure to check this article for detailed guidance.
Give it some time after inserting an email address and password; 10 minutes is usually enough. After that's completed, Outlook will be successfully connected to your mailbox at Hostinger.
