Adding a Pop Email account:
You can create an unlimited number of new pop email accounts by clicking the "add new account" option.
You will be taken to a new screen:
Type the username you want in the "email" box, and the password you choose for this account in the "password box."
Click "create" and your new account will be activated.
In order to receive mail sent to this address, you must set up the new account in the program you use for email.
For example, if you access your email through your browser, you need to add this account to your browser's email program.
New accounts are added to email programs in various ways. If you are unfamiliar with how your email program works, you will need to access the email tutorials for information on your particular program.
Most programs will ask you for a username and two services. One service will be POP3 and the other is usually SMTP.
Type in the username that you chose for your new account.
Type your domain name where it asks for your POP3 account.
For example,
mail.yourdomain.com
Do not add your username in the POP3 box, just the domain name as illustrated above.
SMTP: is your outgoing mail,
mail.yourdomain.com
These are typical instructions for setting up a new email account. Your program may require something different. It is not possible for us to provide instructions for every possible configuration, nor provide support for your individual software. If you have problems, please contact your software provider for support.
The difference between private
pop mail accounts, and simply using the "Catch-All" method: There are two kinds of email address's you can use, starting
with the "catch all" method:
Simply set your email client to your "default" email address (displayed in C-Panel), and "all" email sent to anything@yourdomain.com will land in this box, or whatever you've set your default address to.
This is an easy way to catch all email sent to your domain. In your Email client, feel free to configure multiple outgoing accounts at many-different-names@youdomain.com.
It really doesn't matter, as everything@yourdomain.com will land in the default account.
Therefore, you would configure all of your email accounts with the "same" Username and Password as your "Default domain Email Account."
EXAMPLE: Let's say you want to receive mail from mailto:me@mynewdomain.com and you@yourdomain.com. If both of these addresses are the ones you'll be using, then the only thing that changes is the address - the Username and Password is "always" the same.
