   I followed the instructions on adding a personalized email address to my blog, and more than 72 hours have passed since I did this, however the email address is not working.

   The domain name I set up with WordPress is japansociology.com, and I followed the instructions to add my Google email address to my domain. I also waited 72 hours for the change to propagate, but emails to the address [email redacted] come back with the error message pasted below.

   I would appreciate your assistance.

   Thank you.

   Hi I have the same problem and I am so helpless as I am no good with my web and Internet skills. I have been trying to find the problem for almost 2 weeks. Can you kindly share with me how you fixed yours? Thanks much!
