  I recently added a domain from namecheap.com to my wordpress site. However, I now cannot access the e-mail that I once had going to my address, as it attempts to route it through the WP site and I cannot do it. I’ve been told to:

  This domain name is using third party DNS, please contact your DNS provider to add the following records:
  mail.buriedinthecredits.com IN CNAME 0 oxwebmail.registrar-servers.com.
  buriedinthecredits.com IN MX 10 oxmail.registrar-servers.com.

  Is this possible, and if so, how do I do it?

  You can edit your domain’s DNS in your Dashboard at ‘Store’ -> ‘Domains’ -> ‘Edit DNS’.

  Please try and fill in these records:

  CNAME mail oxwebmail.registrar-servers.com.
  MX 10 oxmail.registrar-servers.com.

  and click on the blue ‘Save DNS Records’ when you are done.
