  I would like to change my url from http://mail.google.com/a/braddlewis.com (default) to http:// .braddlewis.com/ (custom). Google said that I had to create cname records. I have been searching how to do so and can’t find anything. Help?

  thanks macmanx but I have already set up my email. This is the url to get to google mail. You can customize it to have your domain and not google like in the example above:

  “change my url from http://mail.google.com/a/braddlewis.com (default) to http://mail.braddlewis.com/ (custom)”

  Ah, in that case, you’ll need to get the full CNAME info from Google, then add the record to your Custom DNS panel: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/
