  Hi, I’ve used my existing domain name in my Chunk themed WordPress blog and am wondering if I can create an email address using the domain name?

  Cheers
  Andrew

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

  Hi Andrew. Yes, you can do that through Google Apps:

  Hi I’m having trouble verifying that I own the domain. I do but need to verify that by adding a tag to the header (which I understand can’t be donw with WordPress.com), or changing MX records (but difficult as my DRS’s website is down (yeah really!)), or uploading an html file (can this be done?)

  PS I am using a custom domain name if that wasn’t obvious
