I’m trying to keep my email address at my domain name and I don’t want to lose it by using CNAME.
Can I use an A Record instead?

Hi Tim, I know Carl has been helping you out with via our one-on-one support, but for the benefit of anyone else searching these forums, here’s the short answer:

You can still use a CNAME to point www. yoursite.com to unbouncepages.com, then setup a 301 redirect from yoursite.com (notice no “www”) to www.yoursite.com with your hosting provider. That’ll give you the best of both worlds (a working domain for email and the rest, and a working “naked” domain.)

Cheers,
Carter
