  WordPress.com does not provide an email service for domains. To add email service see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/domains/add-email/

  You can have an email for your custom domain name ((email visible only to moderators and staff)) – if you use Gmail the email is free – you can use other email providers but you need to pay for that usually – its just that WordPress.COM has chosen not to host email on their servers

  I’m sorry whatever you read did not clearly state the facts.

  When prompted for “domain name” in the 1st step on the Google Apps page do I use just my website address (www.mysite.com) or do I add the email address I want to add ((email visible only to moderators and staff)) ?

  Thanks
