Set up Email Accounts
Every client that hosts through us receives unlimited email accounts with unlimited storage in each of those accounts. These email accounts are great in that they use your domain name as the ending address which provides all of your staff with much more professional email addresses than they may currently be using (example yourname@yourdomain.com). It can also make it easier for staff to remember each others email addresses if you use a standard method in creating them.
We will set up these email addresses for you for free anytime you need them as part of your maintenance. The email addresses can be used through outlook (or other email programs) or checked online at anytime.
Because many staff would prefer to not have ‘another’ email account, a forwarding system can be set up as well. When a forwarding system is set up there is no actual email account set up, but when someone sends an email to the more ‘professional’ address, it will automatically be sent to the email account that the staff member that it is set up to forward to. The only downfall of this is that when they respond to the person that sent the email, their ‘cutsy’ email address will be the one that appears.
To set up the email account, we just need an email from a contact that we have from your parish or business and we will email you with the instructions. When you send an email please give us the email address that you would like created. Please see below for how to access email online from any computer and how to set up the email through a program such as Outlook.
