  • Weight 0  (or as per your design)

  • Port 443

  • Target exchange.hosting.ca

  • TTL   Verify that an appropriate TTL is selected, 1 hour is a common default.  (If you are approaching a migration, this should be decremented to allow for quicker cutover)

Change <yourdomain> to your full domain name. For example if your domain name is companyabc.com. The CNAME would be:

CNAME webmail.companyABC.com POINTS TO exchange.hosting.ca
