Setting up E-mail 1 - How to set things up on the Control Panel

(Note: If we have not yet moved you to our new server, please click here to view the old e-mail instructions)

We recommend that you print this page out.

Your hosting account allows you to set up multiple email addresses. Let's assume that your domain name is bloggs.co.uk and you want to set up fred@bloggs.co.uk as your main email address. You want any other mail sent to bloggs.co.uk to be sent to your existing email address which is fredbloggs77@hotmail.com. Let's also assume that your Alberon Systems account name is "bloggs".

Log into your control panel with user name "bloggs" and your password.

First set up the fred mailbox:

• Click on "Mail"
• Click on "Manage / Add / Remove accounts"
• Click on "Add account"
• Put in the first part of your e-mail address name "fred" and choose a password
• Click "Create"

Now sort out the other mail @ bloggs.co.uk:

• Click on "Home" at the top right of your browser
• Click on "Mail"
• Click on "Default Address"
• Click on "Set Default Address "
• Enter the address you want mail to go to by default, e.g. fredbloggs77@hotmail.com or fred@bloggs.co.uk
• Click "Change"

That's it. Now you can move on to stage 2 >>
