[google-appengine] Re: sub domain without google apps
Thanks Nick, I willl look into the domains aliases on the single account as that might be a good fit. otherwise I guess I will have to set it up per client.

scrap that it can do it with out the mx records. I now have the domain in my dropdown. I think this will be a lot easier to work out.
