Support Topics: Email: How To Setup Your First Email Account
Creating The Email Account
1. Open your web browser and navigate to the MacHighway Support page. Once there, you will see an Email Control Panel Login. Enter the following in each field:
User: postmaster (this will be entered by default)
Domain: Enter your domain name without the www. (example: mydomain.com)
Password: Your FTP password. You will find your FTP password in the email from MacHighway with the subject line: "From MacHighway: Your MacHighway Account Information"
2. Once successfully logged in, click the "New Email Account" link.
3. You will see 4 fields. Enter the following:
Email Account: Enter the address you'd like to create @ your domain. There's no need to type @mydomain.com, as that's already assumed by the system.
Password: Enter the password you'd like for this email account
Password (again): Re-enter the password you'd like for this email account
Real Name: Put in the name of the owner of this account. This field isn't really used for anything but organizing to which person the address belongs, but it is required by the mail server.
Click the "Add" button.
4. You should now see a list of your POP accounts, including the postmaster account.
