  Could you please let me know what I would need to do to transfer/map the web address http://www.sjgs.org.uk (currently hosted by BT), to WordPress. So that instead of using the address http://sussexjgs.wordpress.com/ our members could use http://www.sjgs.org.uk. While always looking at our WordPress site.

  Also, we have email addresses that use sjgs.org.uk ((email visible only to moderators and staff) , (email visible only to moderators and staff)), that would need to be transferred accross. we currently access these using the Pop3 account through Microsoft Outlook 2010.

  Your help is much appreciated.

  Hi there!

  If you registered the domain then, you’ll need to change your nameservers to the following:
  NS1.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS2.WORDPRESS.COM
  NS3.WORDPRESS.COM

  If you’re not sure how, you’ll need to contact your registrar for assistance.

  NOTE: Before you change your nameservers, you will need to configure new email hosting.

  On WordPress.com we do not provide email hosting, but you can connect email hosting from another provider to your custom domain. Here are instructions for using email with your custom domain:

  Please let me know if you have further questions or if anything is unclear.
