Basic Business Email Option:
 
Thank you for choosing us as your business email service provider. A branded email shows the world your company is professional and ready for business.
 
To set up your email service, please follow the steps below:
 
1. Log in to your account on our website.
 
2. Go to the “My Projects” page via the drop down menu in the upper right hand corner on any page of our site (this should appear once you log in).
 
3. Locate the domain that you registered on the left hand side. There will be a “Manage” button next to the domain you registered. Click on the “Manage” button to go to your domain management page.
 
4. Scroll down to the section titled: “your domain name” Email Management
 
5. You have two different options: you can “Add A Mailbox” (create a new inbox) or you can “Create A Forwarding Address” (which forwards emails to an already established email inbox). You cannot set up the same email address as an inbox AND as a forwarding address. For example, you cannot have a mailbox for “[email protected]” and a forwarding address for “[email protected]”. If you would like to set up a forwarding address please scroll down further to the “Forwarding Address Setup” section below.
 
Add a Mailbox Setup
 
1. Click on “Add A Mailbox” to create a new inbox. Your background screen will darken and a box will appear that says: “Create Your Email Address”. If you cannot see this box, please try scrolling up or down the page.
 
2. Enter the first portion of your email address that you would like to setup such as “info”, “contactus”, or “yourname”. For example, choosing “yourname” would create [email protected] as your email address.
 
3. Create a password to manage your email inbox. Your password must be at least 8 characters, contain one or more numerical digits, and cannot be a dictionary word. Example: Catdog123 will not be accepted. This is to ensure that your inbox is well protected.
 
4. Click “Save” to complete the creation of your inbox. The inbox will now appear under your “Mailboxes” section.
 
5. To log into your newly created inbox, click on the “Access your Email” link This will take you to a new page that says Roundcube. Enter your username (email address you just created, including the domain name at the end - e.g. “[email protected]”) and Password (the password you created for the email address). This will log you into the inbox so that you may send and receive emails.
 
Forwarding Address Setup:
 
1. Click on “Create a Forwarding Address”. Your background screen will darken and a box will appear that says: “Set Up Email Forwarding”. If you cannot see the box, please try scrolling up or down the page.
 
2. Enter the first portion of your email address that you would like to setup such as “info”, “contactus”, or “yourname”. For example, choosing “yourname” would create [email protected] as your email address.
 
3. Enter the email address where you would like your emails to be forwarded (this email address can be a personal email address or already established business email address).
 
4. Click “Save” to save the forwarding information. Now when a client/customer emails you at the email address that you just created, the email will automatically be forwarded to the personal/business email address you already have and you can access it there.

keyboard_arrow_right

Are you having trouble setting up your Business Email on your mobile device or with another email client? We have included instructions below on how to connect the Business Email to the third party clients below. It is important when setting up Business Email to always use the settings below.

Incoming server name: mail.gandi.net
Port: leave the default setting (110 for POP, 143 for IMAP, 995 for POP SSL, or 993 for IMAP SSL).
TLS or SSL: Yes
Username: your full email address (including@yourdomainname)
Password: provide the password you defined when creating the mailbox
Outgoing Mail Setup - SMTP (Sending mail)

Outgoing (SMTP) server name: mail.gandi.net

Password: provide the password you defined when creating the mailbox
Port : 25, 465 (with SSL) or 587 (with STARTTLS)
TLS or SSL : yes
SMTP Authentication: yes, using the same settings as for the POP / IMAP account




Personal Gmail:

In order to set up mail forwarding from your Business Email to your personal Gmail account, you first need to setup your Business Email Mailboxes. Do not create any forwarding addresses and make sure to remove any existing forwarding addresses - they will not work once you set up forwarding in your personal Gmail. Once your mailboxes are set up in your account, go to your personal Gmail Email. Log into your account to begin the process, then follow the steps below.

1. Select the Gear Widget in the top right hand corner > Choose Settings. Note: If you have “Inbox by Google” go to the “Gmail” menu item on the left-hand side menu to launch normal Gmail. Then find this gear in the top right-hand corner.

2. Then choose “Accounts” > “Add Another Email Address”.

3. Enter your “Name” + “Email Address”. Your email address is the business email address created @yourdomainname in your {brand} account. Select “Next Step”.

4. Revise the SMTP settings on the next screen as follows:

SMTP Server: mail.gandi.net

Port: 587

Username: The business email address you created @yourdomainname

Password: The initial password you setfor your business email.

Choose “Secured Connection using TLS”.

Click “Add Account” to proceed.

5. Once completed, you will need to verify that you own the email account you just added to your personal Gmail. The system will send you a verification email at the email address for which you set up forwarding. That automated email will include instructions for verifying ownership.
