hi thanks for the enclosed,

i have indeed carried out the steps you suggested.

i add a txt record for verification in 123 reg (as best i can)  - see 123reg dns below:

after 2 hours + i still get the following error screen:

thanks

hi again,

i think this is relevant - our website was built on wix.com and the hlasxxx.co.uk is using wix name servers (www.hlasxxx.co.uk is "pointed" at the wix website)

all i want is the quickest route to a live website (www.hlasxxx.co.uk) and email addresses @hlasxxx.co.uk.... can you suggest the best way to do it (with o365)?

thanks!

Hi Piper,

Based on my research, since it is using wix nameservers, you can add the TXT record via wix,com website like you did in 123-reg.
Reference: https://www.wix.com/support/html5/article/adding-or-updating-txt-records-in-your-wix-account

Meanwhile, I find that the TXT record in the screenshot is missing TTL value (3600). Please add that when editing TXT record in wix.com site.

Hi  - Thanks so far!

So I was able to add the TXT to the wix.com DNS settings.

I was then able to verify the domain in the O365 set-up, and log back in as *** Email address is removed for privacy ***. I'm able to send emails as *** Email address is removed for privacy *** but I cant receive them (I've tried more than one account). This the error received by the sending email address:

Reporting-MTA: dns;BAY004-OMC1S27.hotmail.com Received-From-MTA: dns;BAY402-EAS92 Arrival-Date: Wed, 10 Feb 2016 00:45:49 -0800

Final-Recipient:

rfc822;*** Email address is removed for privacy ***

Action: failed

Status: 5.5.0 Diagnostic-Code: smtp;550 This domain is not hosted here

what do it do!?

thanks again

Hi Piper,

Sorry for our delay.

Based on our check, Exchange related DNS records are not added properly. As you are using WIX nameservers (DNS provider), so all DNS records produced by Office 365 should be added to WIX. Please refer to : https://www.wix.com/support/html5/domains/managing-your-domain-records/ to add all the DNS records produced by Office 365(you can get these DNS records on your screenshot, steps 3:set up domain). 

In addition, 123-reg now is regarded as DNS register, if you have add DNS records produced by Office 365, please delete them.

We will keep assisting you based on your updates.
