  WP.com: Yes
  Jetpack: No
  Correct account: Yes

  DNS records are special settings that change how your domain works. They control what people see when they visit your domain and allow you to connect your domain to third-party services such as an email provider. This guide will show you how to add, remove, and change your domain’s DNS records. Reasons for Editing DNS RecordsViewing your DNS recordsAdding Custom DNS RecordsTerminology Used

  Also, when adding the DKIM record, if you get an error message that the record is too long, you’ll want to contact your email service provider and get the 1024-bit key, which will be shorter and allowed on WordPress.com.

  Let us know if you need further help with this.
