Hi, I just did a quick 'search' and it seems you can't change your own MX records, but you can submit a ticket and have Support do it for you.

Hello AJ,

MX records are configured with your domain registrar. Assuming that you set everything up using the training here, your registrar is Namecheap.

But, from what I gather, you want to manage your domain specific email using your Gmail account. There is a simple way to do it.

First, I'm assuming you already have a domain specific email address setup. If not, here's Kyle's tutorial: Next, here's a tutorial for configuring your GMail. This tutorial will show you how to send and receive email for multiple accounts using the Gmail interface. Whenever you send email, you'll have the option of sending it using your normal Gmail address or your website's address: I use this same configuration, though my site is not hosted at WA. I hope that helps.

Where can I find the mx records settings within wordpress?
