I registered my domain with Namecheap. Switching my app to GAE, I moved by nameservers to the default Namecheap ones. Then I set up a CNAME record so that the host name '@' refers to 'ghs.google.com'. This worked great. Then, I wanted my email to work, so I went to set up my MX records. I followed Google's instructions, and despite waiting well over 48 hours, email did not work.
I emailed Namecheap support and they told me that it is impossible to have a CNAME record for '@' and to have MX records for '@'. This is unacceptable. They said the ONLY thing to do was create a framed redirect from '@' to the 'www' hostname, and then set up the CNAME on 'www' and MX records on '@'. I do NOT want to access my site at http://www.example.com and certainly do not want a framed redirect (what is this, 1999?). Is there anyway to do this? Surely others have wanted to set up a GAE app and Google email on the same domain... If it is a problem with namecheap, I would transfer instantly to godaddy or whomever this works properly with.
