First lets start with some terminology:
A POP3 account is the email account name that you
will specify in the control panel under the Mail
Manager icon. So the name of your incoming POP3
server is yourdomain.com
To create/delete/edit email accounts,
usernames and passwords, use the Mail Manager in
your Control Panel.
Note: Your email username/password
does not have to be the same as One on One Internet
logon/password.
You may use your own email client
or downloadable e-mail client to check e-mail (see
below). Web-based programs are usually basic send/receive
while the downloadable programs offer much more
powerful solutions.
Email set up examples:
Incoming Mail (POP3): yourdomain.com
Outgoing Mail (SMTP): Same as the email account given to you by your
ISP, for example if your provider is AT&T, it will be: mail.attbi.com.
If your ISP does not allow you to use their sendmail servers, you can
use ours at mail.yourdomain.com.
POP3 Account Username: This is the
email account login name (i.e. 'info' or 'dave')
that you created through the mail manager in the
control panel. Note this does not have to be the
same as your control panel login/password and is
easily changed using the mail manager.
From your Control Panel, choose "Mail
Manager"
Enter the name of the mailbox (it
will become 'mailbox'@yourdomain.com) and the password
you choose. When you click 'Add', your new mailbox
has been set up.
