  Per Dreamhost support, I need to get the following records setup for my domain to point the mail hosting back to Dreamhost:

  MX 0 mx1.sub4.homie.mail.dreamhost.com.
  MX 0 mx2.sub4.homie.mail.dreamhost.com.

  mail A 69.163.253.135
  mail MX 0 mx1.sub4.homie.mail.dreamhost.com.
  mail MX 0 mx2.sub4.homie.mail.dreamhost.com.
  mailboxes A 208.97.187.203
  http://www.mailboxes A 208.97.187.203
  webmail A 208.97.187.139
  http://www.webmail A 208.97.187.139

  I’ve made several attempts to apply these changes using WordPress’ online support information without success. I’m not a technical person, and my (email visible only to moderators and staff) email address has been down for a week since my first attempt to fix it. Although I need help with my (email visible only to moderators and staff) email, I’ve changed my email address for this inquiry to an old once since the erinshelby.com address is currently not working. You can reach me at (email visible only to moderators and staff).

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

  Hi Erin,

  I have added the records you as requested. It may take a day or two to fully propagate, so please let me know if it’s not working in a day or two.

  Cheers!
