Question

Why should I remove legacy DNS entries?

Answer

Previously, Zendesk recommended adding the four cname records below. We now recommend that you remove these legacy DNS entries. Only legacy customers will have them. While these records will cause no harm, it's best practice to remove non-functional records of any kind.

zendesk1.yourdomain.com >> mail1.zendesk.com
zendesk2.yourdomain.com >> mail2.zendesk.com
zendesk3.yourdomain.com >> mail3.zendesk.com
zendesk4.yourdomain.com >> mail4.zendesk.com
