Mail domains: This list is the active domain names you have setup in your hosting account. For each name you can have a dedicated email address(s). To manage multiple email domain resources, choose it from the drop-down list and click the Go button next to the drop-down list. Your first domain name will always be the default. This is made this way so you can have multiple domain names from one central login on our system. |

Incoming POP3 Server and Outgoing (SMTP) Server: These are the identifiers given to the system and your email accounts to direct mail to the proper account(s). These are server names to deliver mail from and to your mail resources. Your local system needs to know where to go to get and send e-mail messages. POP (stands for Post-Office Protocol) which is industry standard specifications. You normally put these server names in your email client as required. See Configuring Your Email Client NOTE: Some ISPs block the default outgoing email port through their systems. In the event that you can receive email but cannot send, please check with your ISP if they allow this or ask them for the custom port number you can put in your email client to redirect as they require.
