Office 365 lets you create custom email addresses using your Squarespace domain. Here's how to set it up:

Prerequisites:

• Active Office 365 account
• Custom Squarespace domain
• Domain not connected to Google Workspace or other email services

Step 1: Verify Domain Ownership

1. Sign up for Microsoft 365
2. Add a TXT record to your domain through Squarespace's domain panel
3. Wait for verification to complete

Step 2: Configure DNS Records

1. Access your Squarespace domain settings
2. Add required DNS records based on needed Microsoft services:
   • MX records for email
   • CNAME records for Outlook
   • TXT records for spam protection
3. Follow Microsoft's specific DNS requirements for each service

Important Notes:

• Allow up to 48 hours for DNS changes to take effect
• For email migration assistance, consult Microsoft's documentation
• Third-party domain users should contact their domain provider
• Google Workspace users need to contact Google for Microsoft Apps integration

This setup enables you to use professional email addresses matching your website domain (example: [email protected]) through Office 365's email services.

For detailed DNS record configuration, refer to Microsoft's official documentation or Squarespace's custom DNS records guide.
