Hi Heorku guys,
>From my research, it looks like you can't use cname's for the domain
if you have MX as well.  Many DNS providers enforce this as well -
I've now tried both godaddy and zoneedit, and neither will allow me to
have MX for google apps, and CNAME to heroku.

I also see that the heroku gem is clever, and won't let me point my
domain if it's not a cname.  Any idea of a work around here?
