Change DNS later

Move your domain to a new DNS host without breaking Reloop mail authentication.

Safe migration checklist

1

Export current records

From the old DNS host (or Reloop dashboard), note SPF, DKIM, DMARC, MX, and tracking values.

2

Create the zone on the new host

Add the domain/zone at Cloudflare, Route 53, etc., and recreate all important records (website + mail), including Reloop’s.

3

Lower TTL beforehand (optional)

A day before, set TTL to 300s on old NS-related records if your registrar allows.

4

Switch nameservers at the registrar

Point NS to the new host. Keep the old zone until dig shows the new NS everywhere.

5

Re-verify in Reloop

After NS propagate, open the domain → Verify. Auto populate may appear if the new host supports Reloop’s Domain Connect template.

Avoid

  • Deleting Reloop records on the old host before the new host is live
  • Switching NS without recreating MX if you still need inbound mail
