  I am not receiving my emails that are hosted via google apps. They have extensively checked to see what the problem is and said I need to contact you regarding the MX records. Apparently something has occurred due to pointing my name servers to WordPress.
  I would appreciate your help with this matter.

  Thank you

  Howdy,

  You should change your name servers to:

  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM

  To configure Google Apps, you will need to add the following DNS records:

  MX 5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
  MX 5 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
  MX 1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM.
  MX 10 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM.
  MX 10 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM.
  TXT v=spf1 include:aspmx.googlemail.com ~all

  You can add these DNS records from by going to Store > Domains and clicking the Edit DNS link for your domain (https://seignoret.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains&action=dnsedit&domain=seignoret.com).

  If you need help setting up your DNS, I’m happy to help.

  Cheers!
