    I’m going to be exporting my wordpress.COM blog soon to wordpress.ORG. I have a domain name and associated email account, which I set up through WordPress.COM using the google MX thingy.

    When I’m ready to move my site, what is the best way to ensure that my email is not interrupted, and I can keep accessing it through google? Sorry if I’m not wording this question right. I’m totally confused about this process…

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

    <q>If you are moving to a privately-hosted server using the WordPress.org software, you first need to obtain appropriate web hosting and have your WordPress.org blog/site up and running before transferring your content.</q>

    Hope this help.

    That’s one of those things that the .org forums can help you with and we cannot. When it comes to starting a new WP.org blog, the best source of info is wp.org, not wp.com.

    Got it. OK, I’ll look on the org forums. Thank you.
