  My incoming mail server isn’t working.

  I need to configure my MX and A records. I have the information to put in but I’m not getting it right.

  This was the email i got from my web hosting company.

  Your domain is pointing to WordPress name server in order to make your website running.

  This is why your incoming mail server with us is not recognized.

  Please contact your web hosting provider and have them configure as followed:

  A record
  mail.pipmagazine.com.au –> 27.124.120.41

  MX record
  pipmagazine.com.au –> mail.pipmagazine.com.au

  To set up your email, head over to Store > Domains, and click “Edit DNS” next to your custom domain:

  https://pipmagazine.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains&action=dnsedit&domain=pipmagazine.com.au

  There, you can try adding the custom DNS records in this format:

  MX 10 mail.pipmagazine.com.au.
  A mail 27.124.120.41

  Let me know if you have any trouble.
