DESCRIPTION

Enable Wildcard

This option is only available with a DynDNS account.

 

Enable the wildcard feature to alias subdomains to be aliased to the same IP address

 

as your (dynamic) domain name. This feature is useful if you want to be able to use,

 

for example, www.yourhost.dyndns.org and still reach your hostname.

 

 

Mail Exchanger

This option is only available with a DynDNS account.

 

DynDNS can route e-mail for your domain name to a mail server (called a mail

 

exchanger). For example, DynDNS routes e-mail for john-doe@yourhost.dyndns.orgto

 

the host record specified as the mail exchanger.

 

If you are using this service, type the host record of your mail server here. Otherwise

 

leave the field blank.

 

See www.dyndns.org for more information about mail exchangers.

 

 

Backup Mail

This option is only available with a DynDNS account.

Exchanger

Select this check box if you are using DynDNS’s backup service for e-mail. With this

 

 

service, DynDNS holds onto your e-mail if your mail server is not available. Once your

 

mail server is available again, the DynDNS server delivers the mail to you. See

 

www.dyndns.org for more information about this service.
