Every domain registered with RegistryDomains.com includes free Email
Forwarding with up to 100 free email forwardings per domain.
Below is a sample from the email information
page and control panel. The email address "info@sampledomain.com"
will be forwarded to "myname@aol.com".
Catch-all Email Feature
In the second line in
the above example, the * sign in the Username field will configure every
other email address with the domain extension "@sampledomain.com" to be
forwarded to "myname@yahoo.com".
This is a great feature to insure that you will receive all email with
your domain extension "@sampledomain.com" , even misspellings. In
other words, email addresses like "infoo@sampledomain.com"
and "webmister@sampledomain.com" will all be forwarded to "myname@yahoo.com".
When you go to enter email addresses on the email
information page, only a few blanks lines appear at first. As you
use the available lines and click "Modify", then more lines will
automatically appear the next time that you load this page up to 50 lines
for unique email forwardings all for free!
How To Send Out Multiple
Email Addresses From Outlook or Outlook Express or Other Web-based Email
Accounts Such As Yahoo.com
Email forwarding is the
first step or the "front end" component of email branding and perception.
The next step or the "back end" solution is to be able to send out
multiple email addresses using your new domain name extension "@yourdomain.com
from an email account manager such as Microsoft Outlook or Outlook
Express. If you don't have Outlook, you can use another web-based
email manager such as DailyEmail.com or Yahoo.com to configure "reply"
email addresses.
Microsoft Outlook
Configuration
Click "Tools" from the top
menu bar and then click "Accounts".
Click the "Mail" subfolder
and then click and highlight your default email address and account that
is configured with Outlook from your ISP or hosting service. Click
"Properties" on the right hand menu bar. Click "Servers" on the
subfolder at the top. Write down the setting for "Outgoing Mail -
SMTP" - you will need this information later in the set-up
Click "Add" in the upper
right hand corner and select "Mail".
Type in your full new email
address "info@sampledomain.com"
as the display name, then click "Next".
Select the option "I
already have an email address I'd like to use" and type in your email
address "info@sampledomain.com"
in the Email Address text box. Then, click "Next".
In the next screen, put in
your full email address in the text box for POP3 account configuration.
( This is where you are actually fooling Outlook and setting up a "reply"
email alias - this will be the name for this account and you will not
receive incoming POP3 mail on this account - you will only be sending out
using the SMTP configuration ) The SMTP configuration should be the same
text as you have listed in your main mail account already configured with
Outlook ( see above - the text you wrote down from the SMTP configuration
), usually an email address given by your ISP or hosting service.
For example if you have Mindspring the SMTP would be "smtp.mindspring.com".
Click "Next" to continue.
When you click "Next" to
continue you will most likely be given a message "The specified POP3
server does not appear to be a valid server name, do you want to use it
anyway?" Click "Yes" to continue.
The next screen is the
Internet Mail Logon screen. It doesn't really matter what you put in
these two text boxes because you will only be sending out from this email
address using Outlook. ( You will most likely be receiving this
email from a forwarding configuration set-up above which will be pointed
to your main POP3 account provided by your ISP or hosting service. )
Type in anything in these two text boxes and then click "Next".
Then click "Finish" on the
next screen.
You should return to the
Internet Accounts screen with your new email address account "info@sampledomain.com
" partially highlighted. Click on the email address of your new account
listed to fully highlight it. Then, click "Properties" on the right
menu bar. Next, click "General" on the subfolder menu at the top.
Fill in text for the Organization "SampleDomain.com" and type in your
complete email address in the "Reply Address" text box. Make sure
that your email address is also listed in the "Name" and the "Email
Address" text fields.
Next, deselect the checked
box at the bottom with the text "Include this account when receiving mail
or synchronizing." This makes sure that this account only sends out
email - it does not receive email. ( Your email is already forwarded to
another account. If it is forwarded to your POP3 account you will
already receive it in your Outlook Inbox. )
Click "Apply" and then
"OK". Then click "Close". - Your account is now set-up to send
out emails using your email address "info@sampledomain.com".
In the future, when you
open a new message text box, there will be a drop down option in the
"From" field, because you now have more than one email address that you
can send out with. You can set up multiple email address aliases
using the same procedure described above. All the accounts will be
listed in the "From" drop down list for you to choose from.
Yahoo And Other
Web-Based Email Configuration
Many web-based email
managers allow you to change the "Reply To" address enabling you to
customize an email address alias when you send out mail from an account
like Yahoo.com. You can usually only set up one email alias with
each account, but it can function in the same manner as described above
with Outlook.
