I mentioned in the video that Squarespace has documentation for different domain name providers, but I guess that’s just for connecting your domain name to Squarespace. They do have this article ‘Google Workspace and Squarespace basics’ where they talk about eligibility, pricing, integrating an existing email account, and more… but they link directly to Google for the MX Records details. You can find all of that here: https://support.squarespace.com/hc/en-us/articles/206542057
