Help with defaulting Mail Exchanger to Auto

[YodW]

Hi, we use a WHM/CPanel and WHMCS Billing system combo. Frustratingly, whenever a new account is created, the exchanger defaults to setting it to a local mail exchanger in Cpanel. This of course stops any emails going out to external mail servers (which is pretty much every single user we're loading in) and sets it to ignore MX Records. We're loading in a couple of hundred users a day and don't have the time to manually log in and change each one.

Where is the default file? How can we change the domain to use either Remote or Auto Mail exchanger? This is really driving us nuts, as it seems the tweak setting to have Cpanel check it itself was removed a couple of versions back (did no one think people might be using an API to set up accounts?)

If anyone has a solution I will be incredibly grateful, my searches so far have been fruitless.

Thanks in advance.

Hello,

Please read the following thread

Note that, you have to move "checked="checked"" to the line containing name="mxcheck" id="mxcheck_remote" to have remote MX by default.

Thank you,
Nibin.
