Since Google Apps is one of the best (if not the best) email services out there, here is how you can setup your domain, which you have its DNS managed by Arvixe, to point to Google.

This blog post presumes you’ve already setup your Google Apps account and that you are just now doing the finishing touches (ie. final DNS settings to have Google handle your emails). If you’ve setup your Google Apps account correctly, this final step will put the finishing touch and allow Google to handle all your emails needs.

For this to be done, you’ll need to setup three DNS records:

1. MX records, thus telling the world, who handles email for your domain (ie. Google).
2. CNAME record, so that if you type mail.yourdomain.com (replace yourdomain with your own domain name – like mail.shai-arvixe.com), it points to Google Apps login page.
3. SPF record to tell the world that Google is allowed to handle emails for your domain (this helps other mail servers know that Google is allowed and thus, help prevent filtering emails from you as spam).

Note: the links above point to Google’s own help articles, respectively.

This might be because your mail client that you are so used to, is just a GUI (Graphic User Interface) for doing things the easy way. In this blog, I’ll show you (a bit of) what your mail client does in order to authenticate and send an email via an SMTP server/service.

This guide, with just using telnet, will allow you to test if you can even do SMTP on port 25 from within your LAN/Organization or behind your Anti-Virus/Firewall.
