  I own a domain name and email through godaddy.com but have my domain set up on wordpress. The problem is, for some reason – I cannot receive emails. This is what godaddy told me to have my hosting provider (you) change within my MX records:

  Dear Ike,

  Thank you for contacting Online Support. It appears as though you are experiencing an issue with receiving messages. After reviewing your account, it appears the MX records for your domain, reelhockeyscouting.com are not correct. You will need to contact your hosting provider and have them add 2 records to the zone file for your domain name.

  The correct MX records to be used for your domain are:

  Priority 0 smtp.secureserver.net
  Priority 10 mailstore1.secureserver.net

  Once the MX records for your domain have been updated at your hosting provider, please allow 24-48 hours for the records to propagate. The email address will be active in your account with us within 48 hours of the change.

  Please help me complete this so that I can get my email up and running.

  You can add MX records using the Store → Domains → Edit DNS page in your blog. See this page for more info: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/

  In the WordPress.com Edit DNS page, MX records should be formatted like this:

  MX 0 smtp.secureserver.net.
  MX 10 mailstore1.secureserver.net.

  I have added the MX records in your note above to your Edit DNS page for you.
