The following table describes the labels in this screen.
24.4.7 MX Record
A MX (Mail eXchange) record indicates which host is responsible for the mail for a particular domain,
that is, controls where mail is sent for that domain. If you do not configure proper MX records for your
domain or other domain, external email from other mail servers will not be able to be delivered to your
mail server and vice versa. Each host or domain can have only one MX record, that is, one domain is
mapping to one host.

is the third-level domain, “com” is the second-level domain, and “tw” is the top level
domain. Underscores are not allowed.
Use "*." as a prefix in the FQDN for a wildcard domain name (for example,
*.example.com).
