Setting Up and Using EMail Services

The first step in setting up your email accounts is to go into your control panel (your welcome letter gives you a link to your control panel). Once in your control panel, click on the Mail Manager icon.  There you will setup your email accounts.  To add an account just click "New Address" and put in the email account name (i.e. "sales" for sales@yourdomain.com), and put in a password for that email account. Then edit the settings for the new account.

After setting up your email in the 'Mail Manager', there are 2 options for accessing your email accounts:
(1) Use your Email Software (ie Outlook Express - * see directions below)
or
(2) use the "Web Based Email" system located here: http://yourdomain.com/up


* You can either

1. Have your email forwarded to another email account i.e. yourname@yahoo.com 

2. Have your email sit on our servers and use your email software to pull the email off our servers (see instructions below on how to access email that you can access on our servers) or

3. Have the email from one account be forwarded to another account that you have under your domain.

If you are having your email forwarded to another email account that you have (i.e. yourname@yahoo.com) you just access your other email as you usually do and your email from your POP3 account will show up. 

The main benefit of using POP3 email is your mail address will be the same whether incoming or outgoing. If you were just to forward your mail to your AOL address, for example, then your outgoing mail would be you@aol.com. But if you use Microsoft® Outlook® to compose your mail (or another email software package), then your incoming and outgoing mail address will be identical (you@yourdmain.com).

If you want to access your email directly from our servers, see the instructions below on how to setup your email software.
