Creating a mailbox

You can create mailboxes with any of your hosted domains. To create a mailbox, go to the E-mail Manager section of your Web Hosting Control Panel. At the top you'll see the "Create New Box" tab. After you click on it, you'll see several text boxes that you need to fill in.

E-mail address - Here you enter the name for your mailbox, which is the part of your e-mail address before the @ symbol. Next you'll have to choose one of your hosted domains from the drop-down menu on the right. The domain would be the part of your e-mail address after the @ symbol.

Password - Here you need to enter the password for your mailbox. You will be using this password to log in to the webmail and also when you set up your e-mail account in Outlook and other e-mail clients. You can enter a password using the symbols a-z and 0-9. The password should be between 2 and 16 symbols long. Once you enter the password, you need to re-type it in the "Re-type Password" field. This way the password is verified and you can be sure that it is correct.

Forward e-mail - If you select this option, you will be able to enter an e-mail address where all the messages received in your new mailbox will be forwarded to. There ishow-to-setup-e-mail-account-in-ms-outlook also a "Save a copy in this mailbox" option. If you select it, a copy of every message that is forwarded will also be saved in this mailbox. You will be able to set up e-mail forwarding later.

Use Autoresponder - Select this option if you want to enter an auto-reply message, which would be sent back to anyone who sends you an e-mail. Usually, this option is used to set up a message informing people that you are on vacation, for example, so it is unlikely that you need this right now. You can set up an auto-responder message at any time. (see: How do I set an auto-reply message to my mailbox?)

When you are ready, you can click on the "Create E-mail" button to create the mailbox. It will appear in the list of Mailboxes.
