Here are some of the questions that I get asked once someone signs up for web
hosting service with me.
- How do I setup my Email? Your email program will ask for a few
simple settings. With our web hosting service you will gain a set
number of POP3 email accounts. You will receive a user id and a
password for your main account. Place this user id in your mail
program as your user id. Same with password. Remember that these
settings are case sensitive. Then under connections it will ask for
POP3 server, that is pop3.yourdomainname.com. No WWW and no
HTTP in this name. So for me I would use pop3.gonzosrun.com as my POP3
server. POP3 is your inbound mail. When it asks for your SMTP
server, that is your outbound mail. Email that you send out will still
use your dial-up connection. So if you are on with AT&T WorldNet
use, postoffice.worldnet.att.net or whatever server is set in your email
program now for your general email.
- How do I setup other email. You can gain access to a master menu on
our server that will give you lots of control over your site. Simply
go to our Control Panel and enter the
requested information. This will ask you for a user id and a user password.
These are the same original items given to you when you signed up.
- How do I use Front Page? Access the menu noted in section #2
above. From there you will find a setting to enable Front Page.
You can turn this feature on or off depending on your needs. Please
remember not to use the password protection on the server menu if you are
going to use Front Page. Front Page has it's own directory
passwords. If you attempt to use both you will start to get some
pretty nasty errors and open your site to hackers.
