What is an MX record priority and how does it work?
MX priority (lower number = higher priority) determines which mail server receives email first. Priority 1 is tried first, then 5, then 10. Set multiple MX records for redundancy — if priority 1 is down, email routes to priority 5. Configure MX records in Connect Quest cPanel Zone Editor at connectquest.co.in.
