  I’ve tried to add a Zone Record for the domain marlowpurves.net but it asked me to contact support. Could you please add the Zone Record for me?
  The hosting provider (pickaweb) in the UK said :”
  You can contact WordPress to change the MX record point to the below mentioned IP address:
  89.187.85.7

  The issue is that while I want wordpress to host the blog now, I also want to continue to get email at (email visible only to moderators and staff) I am using a host in the UK (pickaweb.co.uk)

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

  That’s not actually a zone record, just an MX record.

  You can setup the email following the guide, but you’ll need to get the complete MX records from your email provider. You’ll need both an IP address and priority number.
