E-Mail At Your Site)

E-mail users at your
site can retrieve e-mail using either of the following
two methods:

your email from any computer, anywhere at anytime. Your
hosting
account comes with a personal secure E-mail Login

can login by entering their User Name and Password.

Method2
- E-Mail Software Access - This following
settings will be the same regardless of the e-mail software
you choose:
-Your POP3
& SMTP
Server: www.yourwebsite.com or .net, .org etc...
-Your Email Address: youraccount@yourwebsite.com
or .net, .org etc...
-Your User Name: Provided to you by your Web Site
administrator/developer

Lessons on SPAM filtering for your particular client:
Using E-Mail Software:
We recommend that you use e-mail
software to retreive e-mail. This option stores messages
to your computer.
Using Web-Based E-Mail:
Web-based e-mail stores e-mail information on your hosting
computer (server) until e-mails are deleted. If
messages are not deleted web based e-mail can eventually
maximize storage space within your hosting account which
will result in your not being able to retrieve new messages
until others are deleted.
Rules for Both E-Mail Software & Web-Based
E-Mail: Be sure to configure your e-mail software
or Web-Based E-Mail to delete mail from the server once
it has been read. If you don't set your e-mail to delete
from the server it could eventually cause your account to
run out of space requiring you to upgrade your account or
not receive your messages in a timely fashion (Be assured
that your messages will not be lost altogether, Once you
clean up space you will receive your new messages).
To prevent this from happening, please perform the following
steps:
- You should configure your e-mail software
to delete mail from the server within 15 days after retrieval.
- Configure your web-based e-mail acccount
to leave mail on the server after retrieval.
- Close your e-mail software if you know
it will not be be accessible for a period of time and
you only have access to web-based e-mail.
