Email Forwarding |
||||||||||||||||||||||
|
Every domain registered with bulkdomains.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". 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.
