    Domain name

    I have set up two email accounts but when I try to send a test email to them I just receive the following message: Delivery to the following recipient failed permanently:

    callumjackson@majesty.org.uk

    Technical details of permanent failure:
    DNS Error: Domain name not found

    Does anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?

    Re: Domain name

    I just did a whois search for majesty.org.uk, and there is no record of it having been bought and registered anywhere. Where did you register this domain?

    Re: Domain name

    You can not register any domains there, we only offer free sub domains of the ones in the drop down menu. That is *.x10.mx, *.x10.bz, *.pcriot.com and *.elementfx.com

    Any other domains need to be purchased and configured accordingly at a valid domain registrar.

    Re: Domain name

    I first registered it as majesty.pcriot.com then once it was approved I changed it to majesty.org.uk which was approved again it never said I needed to pay or anything. I can send emails from the account but just not receive them. should I try and register another free domain but not change it this time?

    Re: Domain name

    Your current domain for your main domain doesn't work. You'll need to either buy it from a domain registrar or change it to a free one.

    I will change it to one of the free ones then. Thanks for your help.

    I changed it back to the free domain and the emailing works both ways now but unfortunately I still cant access my website it just says This website does not exist!
    The domain you have requested is currently not in use under an x10Hosting web hosting account. If you would like this domain, you can register it now.

    When it comes to free web hosting, x10Hosting is an industry leader. The features offered in our packages are unparalleled compared to our competition.

    and I don't know why because I have already registered it.

    Re: Domain name

    Clear your browser's cache. When I visit your new main domain, I see the default index.html page that's included in all new hosting accounts. Make sure that when you upload your site that you delete or overwrite that default index.html.
