gmail

[timemiller1]

Already have a business account for gmail attached to a domain. I have moved my domain to weebly. I dont need to sign up for it or pay again to weebly do I? On my old domain host I simply went into control panels and added via google instructions. How do I transfer so that gmail is pointing correctly to weebly location for my domain? Weebly seems to want me to sign up with gmail app.

Hey @timemiller1! Just to clarify, you already set up Google Apps for your domain outside of Weebly, and then bought business so you could use your domain with us?

[timemiller1]

nope

Had google business account already and working with domain at another host (i think i have the lingo correct).

Just recently transferred domain to you (weebly). Want to make sure gmail is pointed to the right location.

So. On the weebly dashboard trying to get the MX updated etc. (found that after my post).

Now trying to update everything - except now MX wont work - gmail does not provide the "host" only priority and the "points to"

Ahh, ok, so after you transfered your domain here you just need to configure your MX records again so it uses Google Apps again.  What was the domain you transfered to us?

[timemiller1]

Yes.

I have followed googles directions. except weebly asks for a "host". google only provides a "priority" and "points to" in the instructions. What do I fill in at that "host" box on the MX.

@Sorry for the confusion! You should use @ (the at symbol) for host for all of the records.

Thanks.

I have done that, but still get an error. ugh. why is this so difficult?

I added and saved the records for you from our end, so once they propagate your email should start working.  It'll vary a bit depending on ISP, but it shouldn't take more than a day or so at the most.
