  Howdy,

  You don’t seem to have a domain mapped to your blog, so you won’t be able to enter custom DNS records here.

  Could you give me a few more details about what you’re trying to do?

  I have. lcwickrsham.com is mapped to my blog, and working when I go there. The blog is private for now as I have not set it up yet. It is my primary domain.

  I changed the name servers at Dotster to those for WordPress and have entered the following new DNS Records taken from my records at Dotster to the edit DNS records panel in Worpress:

  MX 10 MAIL11.DOTSTERHOST.COM.
  CNAME POP.LCWICKERSHAM.COM MAIL11.DOTSTERHOST.COM.
  CNAME SMTP.LCWICKERSHAM.COM MAIL11.DOTSTERHOST.COM.
  CNAME WEBMAIL.LCWICKERSHAM.COM WEBMAIL11.DOTSTERHOST.COM.

  Now, my (I’m on a MAC) mail client can not get email, and I can not access webmail. No mail at all… Bumming
