  Hi, is there a webpage with information on how to set up a personal website address ((email visible only to moderators and staff)). I’m currently receiving mail from this e-mail account, but I can’t send e-mail from it.

  Thanks!

  It’s actually elprofesornorteamericano.com, not sure if that makes any difference.

  Have you seen this page:

  If not, take a look through it and let me know if you have any further questions. I’ll be happy to help. If you have already done what is listed there, let me know and we can try to troubleshoot a bit more.

  Hey Josh, thanks for the response!

  I saw an option for how to connect to Outlook, which is what I’m using, but it’s not exactly the configuration that matches the options for a new account.

  The info it’s asking from me is:

  Account type: POP3 or IMAP
  Incoming mail server: ?
  Outgoing mail server (SMTP: ?

  Would you happen to know where I can find this info?

  Thanks!

  Christian

  WordPress.com doesn’t provide email servers, so we do not have STMP or POP3 servers.

  You can either use custom DNS and set up MX records as described on the support page I linked to earlier. Or you can just set up an email forwarder using these instructions:
