  Hi Bors,

  Currently, it looks like you have a DNS record in place. You can see this under Edit Domains -> Edit DNS here:

  https://starackidomhr.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

  You’ll see MX followed by “mail handled by mail.starackidom.hr. with priority 10.” This record is generally used if you have an email address setup through a third-party service like Google Apps. You can read more about that here:

  DNS Records

  If, instead, you would like to use email forwarding, you will need to delete that record using the trash can symbol here:

  Then, you can setup email forwarding following the instructions here:

  Can you give that a try?
