| jelkner | good morning, ubuntourist | 12:08 |
| ubuntourist | Good afternoon, jelkner | 12:21 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, my new "Oooh! Shiney!" has arrived. I'm in the midst of configuring the Dell XPS 13 DE, unboxed yesterday. | 12:23 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, I assume you saw the message about DNS MX records. Not sure who makes that fix, but I know I don't have the requisite credentials to DIM (Do It Myself). | 12:24 |
| jelkner | Let's talk about it on Tuesday. | 12:29 |
| jelkner | Who has the credentials? | 12:29 |
| jelkner | if I need to do something, ubuntourist, I will, but I need to know what to do. | 12:30 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, my limited understanding is that it's relatively simple: Follow the directions in the e-mail message. | 12:33 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, you're listed as the contact for the domain novawebdevelopment.org. | 12:33 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, it is registered with domaindiscover.com (?) or is that some sort of masked thing? | 12:34 |
| jelkner | Okey Dokey | 12:35 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, presumably, in a control panel for domaindiscover.com, there is an "Add DNS record" which you would use three times to enter the three MX records from the e-mail. | 12:35 |
| ubuntourist | I don't quite know what I'm talking about, but from all you've told me, you've done this LOTS of times before. | 12:36 |
| ubuntourist | (I know I've recently bollixed it up when I tried to do it for DC Books to Prisons, and I've finally thrown in the towel.) | 12:37 |
| ubuntourist | (I tried pointing the three domain names we own to a single site, but only one of the three appears to work, despite all three being set identically.) | 12:39 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, if you point me to the login credentials, I can try to add the MX records myself, but lacking URL, username and password, I'm at an impasse. | 12:42 |
| jelkner | you have everything you need, ubuntourist? | 12:54 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, I *believe* so. | 12:55 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, well... It's a step in the right direction. After adding the records, a message that was sent three days ago finally arrived. | 13:21 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, however, I'm still not able to verify to Gmail's satisfaction that I am, in fact, kevin.cole@novawebdevelopment.org. | 13:22 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, I'm hoping that's just some propagation delay issue, and that, in a few hours it will no longer be a problem. | 13:22 |
| ubuntourist | jelkner, aaaand Yesssss! We're good to go! | 13:36 |
| jelkner | Yippee | 14:29 |
| jelkner | OK, over and out. Time to visit my grandmother. | 14:29 |
