  Is this possible? I have been looking into this and I am confused by the help FAQ that says:

  “Q: I purchased a domain through WordPress.com – can I setup email through it or change my mx records?
  A: Sorry but that cannot be done at this time.”

  Does that mean that if I buy my domain through wordpress I am then not able to use google apps to set up an associated mail address?

  Thanks

  It can be done. You were just looking at the wrong entry. This should help:

  Email and a blog on the same domain

  I should add it can be done once you’ve purchased your domain.

  Yup. Have done it myself. Very easy, and ellaella’s info’s spot on!
