How to use Google Apps for your domain

To use Google Apps email, you need to create two CNAME records and appropriate MX records.

CNAME Records:

Name = googlefffggghhh12345
Data = google.com

Name = mail
Data = ghs.google.com

MX records:

Name = (leave it blank)
TTL = 86400 (default)
Priority = 1 (whatever appropriate)
Data = ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
After submission it will look like
domainname 86400 IN MX 1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM

1 ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5 ALT1.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
5 ALT2.ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
10 ASPMX2.GOOGLEMAIL.COM
10 ASPMX3.GOOGLEMAIL.COM

For web redirects, you need to consult the Google Apps doc. We have seen users creating a CNAME record for www that is

Name = www
Data = ghs.google.com

Please consult the Google Apps doc before creating such records.
