Setting up Google Apps

Question

I have registered a domain (though there is no hosting yet, just name registration) and I am trying to set up google apps so that I can have email, but I cannot figure it out. Is there something I am missing? I feel like it should be easier than it is right now.

Answer 1

You need to correctly set the MX records at your registrar.

Answer 2

Have you proved domain ownership including a CNAME record in your DNS server? Just follow the instructions.

If you don't have access to your DNS server for adding records, and don't have a webserver where you can put a verification file I think you wont be able do setup e-mail.
