Step 6: Create an Email Address


 

When you have a domain name (ex: www.mywebsite.com), you can create an email address using that domain name.

For example, if your domain name is mywebsite.com, you could create an email address such as me@mywebsite.com

 

To create a new Email account:

1

Click Email in the Manage Services page of SiteControl

When you setup POP e-mail for the first time, click Activate Email.  Once activated, you will never see this icon again.
 

 

Next, using the dropdown menu, select the plan for which you wish to activate e-mail.

 

Finally, select the radio button next to Advanced Mail (MFG), and click Activate.

 

You should then see the confirmation message.  Please allow up to a few minutes for the activation to complete.  In the meanwhile, click Back to Overview.

 

Upon completion, you should see the SiteMail link in the Email Overview page.

To start managing your e-mail account(s), click SiteMail.
