Communication is key. Without it, a great many tasks fail to get accomplished. Setting up email accounts through your web hosting is a great way to tie email accounts to your business and domain(s) so communication flows freely. Let's get an account setup with you!
Login to your cPanel account.
Once you are in cPanel's home page, located the 'Mail' section towards the top, then select the Email Accounts icon.
Click the +Create button to add a new email account.
You should now be on a screen that contains a form to fill out information regarding the new email account you are about to create.
Enter the email address you want to use. Note that the '@domain.com' ending to the address is already included.
Select a password for your email account. The password will not be accepted until is has a password strength of at least 50.
