I got Gmail hosted email working this morning…finally.  The only way I got it to work was to find the documenation for the control panel that my hosting company uses.  After talking to the less that supportive support personnel yesterday, I was ready to dump host excellence and go with dreamhost.  To get it to work, I had to disable the email for my domain from the hosting control panel and then add the customized DNS MX records.

Now I can use my domain email address as my primary email address instead of my gmail email address.  In other useless website news, I registered the domain PeteWood.info.  I have 5 more free domains that I can register through my hosting company.  I’m after petewood.com and petewood.net too.  My plan is to have all of the major petewood tlds.  I know the petewood name is so very lucrative and wanted by all…I must have them all!  Once I get the .com domain, I’ll stop there and be happy(ier) with that.

Yay Hosted Gmail and their spam filters, yay!
