A customer asked if I could add a TXT record to their domain's DNS for use by MS Office 365: HOST VALUE @ MS=ms123456789 (this value is changed for this example) cPanel won't allow '@' in the "Name" field when using the account's DNS Zone Editor. What should be used instead? Thanks!

  @ refers to the parent zone domain name. if your domain name is [plain]example.tld[/plain] then just replace [font="courier new">@ with [font="courier new">[plain]example.tld.[/plain] Note the . is necessary.
