Checking E-mail using a Web Browser

WEBMAIL
If you would like to check your mail on-line (similar to Hotmail and Yahoo! Mail), simply do this:

  1. In a web browser, type in: www.[yourdomain.com]/webmail/
    • make sure you replace [yourdomain.com] with YOUR actual domain name along with the domain ending (.com, .net, .org, etc.)
    • Example, Acme Corporation owns www.acme.com .
      They would enter: www.acme.com/webmail/

  2. A User name / Password box will pop up.

    Your user name is in the format: yourusername@yourdomain.com

    Your password is whatever your password is. (remember, it is case sensitive)
    • For example, John Smith at Acme Corporation has the user name: jsmith and password: 1x3FW89t
    • He would input:
      user name: jsmith@acme.com
      password: 1x3FW89t
    • note for the hosting account owner: only the main account name should not enter the "@yourdomainname.com" part. The master account name should just enter the user name.

  3. Now just choose your favorite mail interface: NeoMail, Horde, or SquirrelMail . You can also change your password, forwarding options, and autoresponder options here.

  4. After you have finished checking/sending email, MAKE SURE TO LOGOUT AND CLOSE THE WEB BROWSER. This cannot be stressed enough. If you do not close the web browser, anyone can re-login to your account. CLOSE THE WEB BROWSER AFTER YOU ARE DONE WITH E-MAIL.

  5. That wraps up checking your E-mail from a web browser.
