Setting Up Your Email Account

The web hosting plan you purchased should've come with at least one email address that uses the domain name you purchased for your web site.  After you have your new email address set up at your web host (or other email provider), you then need to set up an email account within the email software on your computer to receive the incoming email.  

If you didn't set up your new email address with your web host or email host, then you need to contact the person who did because you'll need some information from them before you can set up the email account on your computer.

Many people use either Microsoft Outlook Express (which is free with the Internet Explorer browser) or the Microsoft Office Outlook software which comes bundled with the Microsoft Office suite of software.  Below are set-up guides for these two products:
