  According to numerous e-mails I’ve recieved from Zoho, I need to add MX records in order to ensure I receive mail that I have set up for ceasecows.com through Zoho. I have already contacted both GoDaddy and Wild West Domains, with the result being that I was directed to contact WordPress in order to resolve this issue. The following need to be added and I’m unable to find /access anything on the WP dashboard (such as a Domains page) that would allow me to handle this update myself:

  Priority: 10 Record: mx.zoho.com
  Priority: 20 Record: mx2.zoho.com

  If someone can either add the above or instruct me on how to handle it myself, I would appreciate it.

  You can find instructions for doing that here:

  Let me know if you have any trouble.

  When I try to go to the Domains page it says “Domains not available for this site”

  Ahh, I see the issue.

  I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble. However, ceasecows.com is a self-hosted WordPress.org site, which we really can’t help with.

  To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: http://support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org has complete documentation and support sites for self-hosted/installed versions of WordPress.org at http://codex.wordpress.org/ and http://wordpress.org/support/ Your webhost’s support team is another good resource.
