    You can configure an MX record within the appropriate zone in ZoneRunner and specify the target as the desired hostname of mail.messaging.microsoft.com.

Yes, We have fully configured and tested the A records on the GTMs, and when we were about to have the DNS A records' hosting moved from the SP to the in-house GTM, the SP told us the story about their procedure for holding DNS A and MX record entries.

 

I am going to follow your suggested procedure...and will let you know the outcome...

Just curious, are you hosting the A records as wide IPs or are they configured within ZoneRunner? Or something else?
