  We have our domain (OpengateInc.org) registered with Enom. We would like to change the name server at Enom to point to yours, because it is our understanding that you can not associate and address for our Website with you so we need to just point the name servers and that would get our site up.
  I need to understand this a little better and also verify where I add the records we will need.

  I would prefer a phone call if possible at 914-347-2700 x228.

  Thanks,
  Alex

  I can help you get this set up.

  First off, we have some help documentation on our support page here:
  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  So that is a good place to start.

  On your domain registrar’s side, you will need to go to your registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  Please let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.

  CNAME autodiscover mail.opengateinc.org.
  A mail 47.23.169.235
  MX 10 mail.opengateinc.org.
  TXT v=spf1 include:mail.opengateinc.org ~all

  I added the above records after mapping our domain.

  http://www.opengateinc.org does not work.
  Opengateinc.org does
  mail.opengateinc.org does not work also

  I am seeing http://www.opengateinc.org (and http://opengateinc.org) point correctly to your WordPress.com site.

  It can take 24-48 hours for domain/DNS changes to propagate throughout the internet. It typically happens faster than that, but it really depends on your ISPs update frequency. If you are still not seeing the correct site appear after 48 hours has elapsed, please contact me again.

  Also, do let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
