### 📌 Important Note :

Before you begin, we would highly suggest you to have one **email hosting** for example like [yourname@yourbusinessname.com](mailto:yourname@yourbusinessname.com) (also known as professional email). If you do not own any email hosting yet, kindly register one through 3rd party email hosting provider such as [ZOHO Mail](https://www.zoho.com/mail/)

Next, you can point the **MX Record** (provided by your email hosting provider) to your domain DNS Record. Here would be a few example for ZOHO Mail :
*   [Set up ZOHO mail](/en/article/set-up-zoho-mail-1jnvhd8/)    
*   [Add MX record (email hosting)](/en/article/add-mx-record-email-hosting-1jtylgv/)
