  I have my current website made with wordpress but it is hosted using openhost and when i changed my website to wordpress but kept my domain, the email stopped working. I contacted openhost and they said they required the a-records which i can’t seem to find. Where do i find these?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I’ve just set the correct records on your domain. Let me know if it works now.

  Sorry what i mean is; i have a main email address which is working but i also have two sub email addresses that link to the main one. They seemed to stop working after i switched to wordpress. The domain holder (openhost) is asking for what a records they put in on their side

  Thanks,
  Dom

  The e-mail record on your domain points to Openhost. Therefore other e-mail addresses (like the sub addresses you mentioned) need to be set on their control panel.

  This is what i have been asked to retrieve; “what A-record you need to point your domain to so it loads your site from their servers”

  Your domain’s name server records already point to us so it redirects the website. The e-mail record on our end points to 119.47.118.45, which is openhost’s mail server. Therefore you’ll need to create new e-mail addresses on their site or ask their support to create this for you.
