This article is intended for businesses and freelancers that want to setup Google Workspace to have all email delivered directly into Gmail.

If you want:

  • Gmail web interface only

  • Google’s spam filtering

  • Full Google ecosystem integration

Then the correct solution is to move your domain email to Google Workspace.

What changes when you move to Google Workspace

  • Email hosting moves from Maxer to Google.

  • Your MX and SPF records must be updated (e.g. using the Remote MX Wizard).

  • Google handles spam filtering and storage.

  • Billing for email moves to Google.

Maxer will continue hosting your website and any other services.

Step 1: Purchase Google Workspace

Sign up for Google Workspace using your domain name.

Create your user accounts inside Google Workspace.

Step 2: (Optional) Migrate existing email

You can import existing email from your Maxer mailbox using Google’s IMAP migration tools.

This step is handled inside the Google Workspace admin area.

Step 3: Update your MX records

Once your Google Workspace mailboxes are ready, log in to cPanel and use the Remote MX Wizard to add the DNS technical records:

This updates your DNS so email is delivered directly to Google.

Important

After switching to Google Workspace:

  • Devices must be reconfigured to use Google mail servers.

  • Your old Maxer mailboxes will no longer receive new mail.

  • We do not manage Google Workspace accounts internally.

  • Support related to the email service will be mainly provided by Google.
