How To Configure Your Custom Domain Email, Step 3: MX Records: Method 1: Automatic

Have you configured your CNAME records?

Have you configured blogger’s publishing settings?

Have you signed up for Google Apps?

Have you run an NSLookup?

GoDaddy can automatically configure your MX records to work with Google Apps.

1. Go to GoDaddy’s MX Record wizard.
2. Enter your GoDaddy login information. Click Secure Login.
3. Enter the domain you’re updating (e.g., customdomain.com).
4. Click Confirm.
5. Enter your email (or Google Apps mail) information as it requests. It will update your MX Records for you.
6. If you look at your MX Records in GoDaddy, you’ll see that they are listed as pending. That’s normal. It may take anywhere from a few minutes to a couple of days for them to move out of pending and be ready to go.
