To add a TXT record for your domain to enable email functionality with Microsoft Office 365, you'll need to follow these steps:

  1. Log in to your GoDaddy account and access the DNS management section for your domain.

  2. Look for an option to add a new DNS record or specifically a TXT record.

  3. When creating the TXT record:

  • For the Name or Host field, enter "@" (without quotes). Some DNS providers may require you to leave this field blank to represent the root domain.
  • For the Value field, enter "MS=ms31103487" (without quotes).
  • Ensure the record type is set to TXT.
  1. Save the new record.

It's important to note that after adding the TXT record, it may take some time (typically up to 24 hours) for the changes to propagate across the internet. During this time, email functionality might not work immediately.

If you encounter any difficulties or if GoDaddy's interface differs from these general instructions, you may need to consult GoDaddy's specific documentation or contact their support for assistance with adding TXT records for Office 365 email setup.
