How it works
How SecuraWall works, from sign-up to protected mail
SecuraWall works in front of your mail system. You keep your mailboxes and change a DNS record. Everything else is set up in the customer portal.
Monthly per domain · No long contracts · No automatic charges
From sign-up to protected mail.
- 01
Create your account
Sign up in the customer portal, choose Backup MX or Email Security and pay by card for the calendar month.
- 02
Verify your domain
Add the TXT record shown in the portal. It proves that the domain belongs to you.
- 03
Set the delivery target
Enter where clean mail should go: an IP address or host name and port of your mail server or cloud service.
- 04
Change your MX record
For Email Security, SecuraWall becomes your MX. For Backup MX, it is added as a secondary MX. The portal checks the result for you.
Choosing the right mode
Email Security as your primary MX
All incoming mail passes every security layer, then reaches your server. This is the standard setup for Exchange, Zimbra, Carbonio and your own servers.
Inbound gateway mode for Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace
If your tenant is configured to treat SecuraWall as its inbound gateway, the original sender is preserved. You switch this on per domain in the portal.
Backup MX behind your own MX
Your server stays the first MX. SecuraWall accepts mail only when your server does not answer, and delivers it later.
Setup questions
Do I need to install software?
No. SecuraWall is a cloud service. You change DNS records and settings in the portal.
Can I test before changing the MX record?
Yes. The portal checks the delivery target and your DNS records before and after the change.
