You can't use a CNAME record for your root domain. This is a problem for me and lots of folks who run their web servers behind Amazon Elastic Load Balancers or other CNAME-based services. RootRedirect solves the problem nicely.

- 1SaltwaterC 15y agoActually we can, but that's a professional DNS service that includes other stuff besides DNS. But when we used CNAME for the root, some email services stopped working. They were trying to send the email to the CNAME resolved address which was the ELB itself. Did you find a solution for that?
