  Hi there,

  I use Go Daddy as a DNS for slocleanwateraction.org. I’ve tried to add Google as the MX but the glue is not binding. I’ve tried twice after waiting for more than 72 hours for the glue to set.

  Help?

  Thanks!

  Since you have directed your name servers here, we’re actually your DNS provider now, not GoDaddy.

  You can add email through Google Apps following this guide: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/add-email/

  Thanks, macmanx. I’ve actually added Google Apps for email; the problem is that it’s not working. I’ve used the MX on other blogs with no issue, but this time it’s not playing nicely. Right now I have the mailto address sending to another gmail account because I keep getting delivery failures.

  The DNS records that you added appear to be correct. At this point, I recommend contacting Google Apps support: support.google.com/a/bin/request.py?hl=en
