  My domain is hosted by Hover.com, and I’m using Hover to serve my email. I have the correct MX nameserver info written into my WordPress account, but the emails aren’t working.

  I don’t care which nameservers I use for any of it, I just want the domain to point to WordPress, and the mailboxes using Hover.

  Help!

  It looks like your domain is not pointing to WordPress.com name servers yet:

  Please go to your domain registrar’s site and log into the control panel. You will need to update the name servers as below:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  For more information, please visit the help documentation provided by the registrar and our support page:

  http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/map-existing-domain/

  Afterwards, you can add email to your site.

  On WordPress.com, we do not provide email hosting, but you can connect email hosting from another provider to your custom domain. Here are instructions for using email with your custom domain:

  Please let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
