Webmail on Windows hosting: read and send mail in your browser

Webmail lets you read and send mail at your domain in any browser, without a mail app. It belongs to your Windows hosting service and runs at your own domain.

Open webmail

1. In the Mail tab of your service page, select Open Webmail. You can also go straight to https://webmail.example.com/, with your own domain in place of example.com.
2. Sign in with the full E-mail Address and the mailbox password.

The address works once your domain points to the server. If you have no mailbox yet, create one first; see email on Windows hosting.

Read and send mail

Your folders are Inbox, Drafts, Sent, Archive, Junk and Trash.

• Reading: HTML mail is cleaned before you see it, and images from other sites stay blocked until you select Show Images.
• Sending: you can attach files, within the 50 MB limit, and a copy goes to Sent.
• Tidying up: you can flag several messages at once, and Delete moves a message to Trash.
• Leaving: on a shared computer, select Sign Out when you finish.

Verify: send a message to your own address and read it in your Inbox.

Troubleshooting

Webmail does not accept the sign-in. The user name must be the full address, not only the part before @.

The webmail address does not open. Your domain must point to the server first; see point a domain to your server.
