We no longer offer paid email services. If you wish to add additional email service to your domain name, you are required to use Google Apps.
Just follow these instructions to create your administrative account with Gmail, and then set up Gmail to retrieve your e-mails.
To enable Google Apps for your domain names, please follow these instructions.
- Log into your Name.com account.
- Click on the 'Account' icon at the top of your screen.
- On your 'Account' page, click the 'enable' link to the right of the domain you want to enable these services for.
- You will be taken to another page where you will set up your
administrative account.
- Once you have done this, you have successfully set up Google Apps.
When you login to your Name.com account you can view which domain
names are using Google Apps, by looking for the word 'active'.
To set up Gmail to retrieve your e-mail messages:
You will need to make sure that all of your mail is in your inbox in the old system. Gmail will only be able to pull the mail from your
inbox. Please transfer all mail from your other folders to your 'inbox'.
- Login to your Gmail account. You can do this at http://mail.YOURDOMAINNAME. Be sure to substitute 'YOURDOMAINNAME' with your domain.
- Select 'Settings', located in the upper right side of the screen.
- Click on 'Forwarding and Pop/IMAP'.
- In POP download, you will need to 'Enable POP for all mail'.
- You will then need to decide when messages are accessed with POP 'keeps a copy in the inbox, archives copy, or deletes copy' from the drop down menu.
That's it! Your gmail account is set up and should be functioning properly within 30 minutes.
