  Hi,

  I’m having trouble with email forwarding, and contacted 123-reg through whom I bought and rent my domain name. They sent me this response:

  At this moment, you have the following e-mail forwarders created: (email visible only to moderators and staff), (email visible only to moderators and staff), (email visible only to moderators and staff) and the catch all *@fergusmarch.co.uk.

  To view the forwarders created for a domain, please access the Manage email section of your control panel and then select the desired domain from the drop down list found in the top right corner.

  As for the issue with the cactch all forwarder not working, I can see that you have added our MX records to the domain and also this one: MX.MHOSTMAIL.com

  Having the MX records of two companies added to a domain, will cause issues in receiving e-mails.

  Therefore, please contact WordPress, as the domain is using their name servers, to assist you in removing the MX record MX.MHOSTMAIL.com for the forwarders created on our side to properly work.

  I am a relative luddite and do not yet quite understand what this means. Can you assist or advise?

  Many thanks!

  It appears that you may have already addressed this issue, as I don’t see a MX record from MHOSTMAIL:

  If I’ve misunderstood the issue, or if you have any other questions, please let me know.
