    How do I change my MX records? My domain is through GoDaddy. I set up an email through them that I am not able to access because my domain is forwarded (or whatever term it is) to my WordPress blog.
    I purchased the $13 fee to use an outside “service”. I need this resolved our I will be forced to leave the blogging service. I know I am merely a particle in the giant WordPress universe but hopefully this can get resolved in a timely manner. I hate to lose money.

    The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

    Hi there,

    I’m sorry you’re having trouble with your email! When you point your domain’s name servers to a different host, you need to update your email records with the new host. (In this case, that’s here at WordPress.com.)

    You can add the email records you need to use your email through GoDaddy by following this guide: Add Email through GoDaddy email hosting

    Please let me know if you’d like any further help setting that up!
