[Routing](https://support.econz.net/customer/google-workspace?hsLang=en#routing) # How to Add mail servers for Gmail email routing? ## Add an Email Host Typically, Gmail is set up for direct delivery. Direct delivery sends all messages for people in your domain to their Gmail inbox. Sometimes, You may want to set up other email delivery options, especially when managing your own email servers. For example, you might want to deliver Microsoft Exchange messages to an on-premise email server. To set up other email delivery options, you must first add mail routes for your on-premise servers using the Add Route setting.  #### **Add a mail route for your domain** Before you begin: In these steps, you'll enter the hostname or the IP address for the email server where you want to deliver the email. Have this information ready when adding a new mail route for your domain. If you don't know your server's hostname or IP address, contact your server provider or check the support information for your server. - From the Google workspace Admin console, go to **Apps** - This will open up **Google Workspace**, then Select **Gmail** - This will open the Gmail settings from that select **Hosts** ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/75MbjcH-wrse81w0NFWFoNeYkbIA1mGtueriIE7YntL-5vEG8KbzC_72u3QWpg4nL3fjY5pUcqleYke3EEemWQ8dJPxbwDmXAayu4LRRW9vUtEHKjUtI-e6898CSjuBztRVRrjKlDniiPFvRuTaXIp0) - Click **Add Route** ![](https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/FOunNYiR68mrGAfRRK9bF9-SUQbzdBxRAzx0UIFX-dKE1G26pWm_nuxBYwy1AOwoOIv0qYU3oxO7R6UHHv66BdRwwGhireIbJzqUBnEkMbg7vhFbmhmIJfXoAJRTx1bRYN3ffkFs2qxwpf2nvuJ9790) - In the **Add mail route** box, take these steps: - - **Name**:  Enter a name or description for the new mail route - **Specify email server**: - Click the Down arrow menu and select a host option: **Single host** or **Multiple hosts**. - Under the host options menu, enter **server IP addresses** or **hostnames** and enter the appropriate **port number**. - If you have selected multiple hosts you need to add at least one **primary and secondary hostname or IP address** and specify the **Port numbers**. You can also add multiple primary and secondary addresses and distribute the **load %** among them ![](https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/nsJ_tB_AhEgyty5-vxfuJACGGkFqpgFuJeOsqREFxF9_-TdufITVss2feB5ALTh3VqkUShO87brJlJQgGiT9N5jt1X7CZalUJE0efO7D-0yXCth0vWHzP9DEzjwHG9Gsk3aSdmmbrt-VWA2hCaOgmK4) Note: Only Ports Numbers 25,587 and a number from 1024 to 65535 are allowed - **Options**: Select the options for the new route.
