  I mapped my domain from fatcow to wordpress. They gave me a custom DNS record of mx.fatcow.com so I could access my email. When I put this in the appropriate place and I try to validate it before saving changes, wordpress gives me the message that it is not in the right record format. Fatcow assures me this is the same custom DNS for all customers

  You can set your domain as primary at this page, and click on the [Edit DNS] link to edit the records for your domain.

  Please contact Fatcow to give you the appropriate MX records for your domain so that these can be filled into the ‘Edit DNS’ section.
