  How do I create an email using my domain name e.g. (email visible only to moderators and staff)? I have the custom domain and I’ve mapped it to the wordpress site.

  Your instructions say:

  Managing email forwarding

  Your email forwards live under Store → Domains in your dashboard. Every custom domain you added to your blog will have an Edit Domain link next to it.

  Click on Edit Domain to open the domain management screen, and then click on Email on the left to add or remove email forwards for that domain.

  There’s no store and there’s no “Edit Domain.” Help!

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there,

  The Store > My Domains section is in your site’s dashboard here:

  https://selfpublishingservice.wordpress.com/wp-admin/paid-upgrades.php?page=domains

  You can get to there from your My Sites page, by clicking the “Dashboard” link under your site’s title there.

  Right now, it looks like you already have email service set up for self-publishing-service.com with GoDaddy. If you have GoDaddy email service, you can set up that email address directly with GoDaddy.

  If you’d prefer to use our Email Forwarding instead of that GoDaddy email service, you can do that, instead. In that case, after you click the “Edit Domain” button you can go to the “Edit DNS” tab there. You can hover over each of the MX records in that list, and click the trash icon on the far right to remove them. Then, you’ll be able to set up email forwarding for your domain.

  Please let me know if I can do anything more to help with that. :)
