Art Of The Groove - E-Mail Setup

Mail programs vary in the way you setup preferences and options. Remember your incomming POP3 account and outgoing SMTP server are always mail.yourdomain.com

You create/delete/edit email usernames and email passwords in your control panel, or we can set up mailboxes for you. Note: Your email username/password is not necessarily the same as your web hosting account username/password.

Incoming Mail (POP3): mail.yourdomain.com
Outgoing Mail (SMTP): mail.yourdomain.com

POP3 Account Username: This will be the email account name (i.e. 'webmaster' or 'support') you create through your control panel, note this will not be the same as your control panel login and password, this can be different and changed through the mail manager in seconds.

All mail (any-address@yourdomain.com) can automatically be forwarded to a "catch-all" account, so it's not necessary to create separate mailboxes for different accounts unless they are assigned to different people. Additional accounts can be created, edited, deleted from the mail manager. Note, you can setup different passwords from your mail manager for each email account.
