Integrate Windows Live with a separate server
Basically, these steps are equivalent to integrating Windows Live with WordPress.com, but depending on the server or host we use, there will be appropriate changes. For some host systems, you may have to ask support staff to conduct additional MX records. In this article, the website uses cPanel control mechanism, and we will proceed to add MX Entries via cPanel.
Log in to cPanel window, select Mail > MX Entry :

To complete the process of integrating Messenger into the domain, you need to add the SRV value into the DNS adjustment section. But cPanel does not have this option, so we need support from the host service provider:
