E-Mail client configuration


When using your web hosting package with Woktron Web Hosting you have the ability to create unlimited email addresses.

If your domain is "your-domain.com" you could have many different email accounts such as store@your-domain.com, sales@your-domain.com, and many more. Anytime you want to create a new email address you can do so in DirectAdmin.

 

Info! Learn more about the setup and management of your e-mail accounts on this page.
