  I cannot find the ‘Domain’ menu item under ‘Manage’ under ‘my Sites’ in order to set up email forwarding.

  That usually means WordPress.com isn’t hosting your site. You might have connected a WordPress site using the Jetpack plugin. If WordPress.com is not managing the domain, they won’t be able to handle your email. You’d set up forwarding via your host.

  What website is this for if that doesn’t resolve this for you?

  Another possible reason on a WordPress.com hosted site is that you’re not using an Administrator user login, but I hear this reason less.

  Hi thre,

  If you’re speaking of http://liftwellnation.com/, then Darcie is spot-on: that site is not hosted with us, and we have no control over your domain, so you won’t be able to use our email forwarding feature.

  Any email on your domain will have to be set up at your hosting provider.
