I configured a new domain (A, CNAME, MX and TXT).

The websites works but the email doesn’t. I can’t received any email or send it.

Hi there, did you activate the email feature in the domain manager?

Is the email correctly set up like in this article? ([Add and manage email accounts - Sitejet Help](https://help.sitejet.io/article/455-add-and-manage-e-mail-accounts))

Yeah, that’s the first thing I did

Hey mate,

It seems that this 550 error can have three different sources:

1. Email account doesn’t exist or cannot be detected ✅
2. Duplicate sender account in recipient server
3. Misconfigured mail exchanger

I am just curious, because this all looks to be set up properly. I just created a test mailaccount and was able to send and receive various mails to and from various providers.

This points me to the next idea: Are the mail addresses and the mail feature also still active with the old domain / mail provider?

I think they’re active with the other provider.

[hola@hechoencuerno.com](mailto:hola@hechoencuerno.com) doesn’t exist in the other provider, but [contacto@hechoencuerno.com](mailto:contacto@hechoencuerno.com) does

Should I cancel? How do you do it?

That actually depends. If you want to move the mails over and work with our webmailer, I recommend using the [Mail Transfer Tool](https://help.sitejet.io/article/407-mail-transfer-tool) to migrate. When the process is done, you should deactivate the mails with the other provider.

[Here is another user giving you the best way for the switch.](https://community.sitejet.io/t/in-what-order-should-i-change-dns-settings-and-use-the-mail-transfer-tool/318/5)

Hope that helps 🙂
