• How do I setup email forwarding
for my domain name?

and follow the instructions to setting your email forwarding for
your domain name.

How does email forwarding work?
Emails sent to your domain name's email addresses (e.g. yourname@yourdomain.com)
are forwarded to
a destination email address that you've specified.
|
| yourname@yourdomain.com |
 |
youremail@otherdomain.com |
|
• Why do I need email forwarding?
You may be in the process of creating a website and do not
have a live website yet, but you can begin to establish and brand your
online presence by setting up emails with your domain name. You
start to build a professional image when you use the email from
your domain name instead of yourname99382@hotmail.com.
• What is the difference between a
POP3 email address and an email alias?
POP3 emails are email address that store emails on the mail
server (e.g. email address at AOL/Earthlink/Hotmail). Email
aliases at
DomainProcessor serve to forward emails, they do not have a space on the
mail server to store emails. One can not differentiate whether an
email is an alias or POP3 email by looking at it. Only the setup is
different.
• How many email aliases can I setup?
You can setup up to 30 email aliases.
• How do I add a new email alias?
To set up a new email alias, simply log into your
Account Manager and create a new
email alias and enter the destination email.
• Once I setup an email alias, does it work right away?
It will begin to work within thirty minutes! If you've just registered a
new domain name, you will have to wait a few hours before email
forwarding begins to function.
• What is "capture-all"
email alias?
Capture-all email alias serves to capture all the emails sent to your
domain name's email addresses which do not exist or were not set up as
email aliases. This is a great service because you'll never lose
emails which may have been mistyped.
For example, you set up a forwarding email john@johnsmith.com.
A friend sends you an email but mistypes it to jjohn@johnsmith.com.
With capture-all email alias, this email will be automatically forwarded to a
specified POP3 email. Without capture-all email, the mistyped email
will be returned/bounced back to the sender.
• How do I set up "capture-all"
email alias?
To set up capture-all service, enter nobody@yourdomain.com
and enter an email to where you would like to forward the
captured emails to.

• How come I don't need to set up an
User ID and password for my email alias?
You do not need to set up User ID and password for your email
alias because email aliases serve only to
forward emails to a destination email address. Alias
emails do not have a space on the mail server like a POP3 to store
emails, therefore you do not need User ID and password to retrieve
emails.
• Do you provide POP3 email address for my domain name?
Currently we do not provide POP3 email address.
