Vanity,,I need help setting up an e-mail host
04/13/15 | Zeneta

Posted on 04/13/2015 12:59:47 PM PDT by Zeneta

I have recently secured a Domain address.

I'm trying to set up a "Free Email" with Zoho.

My domain host has indicated that I have or can create two email addresses, Which I did.

When I log into Zoho and go through their "set-up" protocols to "verify" my domain they are asking for stuff that makes no sense to me.

I can log into my domain "portal" but can't seem to figure out what ZOHO is looking for. My Domain host is Verio.

I would be happy to run a "Join me" session.

Please reply with the standard FR jokes.

Or

Freepmail me if you can actually help.

Thanks

Contact the NSA. They already have access to it.

There should be some help provider website to help you out.

IF you get a domain at GoDaddy for about $10.00 a year you get free email.

Let’s say your name is Fred and your favorite number is 7.

You could have fred@fred7.com for $10.00 a year.

MUCH better than ‘free,’ IMHO.

Not criticism, but informational.

Good luck!

PS GoDaddy has great customer support and setting up you email will not take too long.

The “registrar” &/or “hosting company” will have a FAQ area for new accounts. Look for it.

Most all “hosting companies” that host domains have a forum for users/new users & those users know the answers to your questions and they have experience working with that host’s control panel.

Most registrars park the domain name for you on their server to show anyone using that URL www.yourcompany.com that it’s been registered.

In the control panel for the domain registrar/hosting company you signed up with, there will be an area to set up email accounts. Remember you’re working with another computer on the WWW that needs to be configured for your particular domain name.

I will guarantee you there is an FAQ somewhere on that site.

Is there an Admin page or control panel? On my domain, you have to set up the email, passwords, and what not on the admin page (at the host.). Then you set up the outlook or mail app on your computer.

Without a hands on look, it’s almost impossible to help you.

Download and install THUNDERBIRD. It makes set up simple.

I met a nice lady who said she was a Domainatrix (or something like that), never got the e-mail working, but had an interesting evening.

If you’re feeling lonesome, create a Postmaster address.

I have zoho set up for my private email

Who did you register your domain name with? If it is GoDaddy you need to set up a DNS entry for the verification.

To clarify, you need to add the cinfirmatoin code as a DNS entry. The code should start with zb*******

Here are the directions

I can't help with the e-mail host (did you ask Hillary?) but I can provide a public place for your dog to take a bath.
