Question asked on Oct 18, 2013

Hello,

 

I have configured domains.live.com for a domain with existing email. Therefore I need it to be setup in the admin interface so I can create the Outlook.com email boxes before changing the MX records over.

 

Consequently I've updated the DNS with the alternative methods to prove ownership:

- Created TXT record

- Created low priority invalid MX record

 

However the admin interface still says:

'You need to prove ownership of this domain by creating a DNS record. Use the settings below.'

 

Do the alternative proof of ownership methods work?

 

Thanks,

Tim
