What is my IP address for my WordPress account?
-
I purchased the domain http://www.lorienoriginal.com through bluehost. I also have an email address – (email visible only to moderators and staff) through bluehost.
After setting up my bluehost account I then created my blog, lorienoriginal.wordpress.com. Through wordpress I made it so that when people typed in lorienoriginal.com they got my wordpress blog. This is working great. However, since I made the switch I can’t get emails through (email visible only to moderators and staff). This is a problem. Bluehost said I need to point the name server back to them, then get an IP address from wordpress and then point just the website to this IP address so I can still keep my email.
Does this make sense? Do I have an IP address through WordPress that I can give to Bluehost? PLEASE HELP!!!!
Thanks,
Lorien

We don’t have dedicated IP addresses at WordPress.com.
Instead, you’ll need to point the nameservers to us, get your MX records from Bluehost, and add these to your Custom DNS panel: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/custom-dns/
Unfortunately, we can’t support all email configurations, so you may need to switch to Google Apps for Domains: http://en.support.wordpress.com/domain-mapping/google-apps-email/
