I have a domain hosted at Dreamhost -- foobar.com. It has Google Apps associated with it: the 50 free email accounts which are no longer available for a new domain. I just got another domain -- foobar.edu. I want foobar.edu to become my main domain, but I still want to use the free Google Apps associated with foobar.com to handle incoming mail.
My question: Can I adjust the MX records of foobar.edu so that incoming messages to [email protected] will be redirected to [email protected] and then be handled by my Google Apps?
I can adjust the DNS for both foobar domains, but I don't think that I can ask Google's foobar.com account to also handle foobar.edu emails directly.

Step 1: Set up email forwarding Click on your domain. Click Email. Under “Email forwarding,” click Add Email Alias. Enter the alias email address and the existing recipient's email address.
MX (Mail Exchanger) Record is a record that is stored in the DNS, and it specifies a mail server that accepts email messages on behalf of the recipient. With the use of a simple mail transfer protocol, it provides a reference value which prioritizes the emails received.
No, you can have only one mail provider per domain. It involved setting up everything (mailboxes, addresses, groups, etc.) in the new place except for the MX records, so it could receive everything. But it didn't receive anything because the MX was still pointing to the old system.
if you need just catch email on domain and forward to you other mailbox, you can use http://improvmx.com/ just by adding MX records to your domain
