Post subject: | Free accounts--myemail@domain.com? |
Hello! I have a free account with Freehostia. I registered a domain (well, technically it's a subdomain: http://shifter1.co.cc) for free with http://co.cc and hosted it here. I have been using a subdomain with Freehostia for over a year (just got the free domain today) and you guys are awesome, but... Is there any way I can get an email address that's something like "me [at]shifter1.co.cc"? It's just a personal site and I'd feel bad lying to Google saying I'm a not-for-profit organization just to get the free addresses they give So is there any possible way I could get it, for free? Thanks. I managed to set up a webmail account in my free account but then it doesn't send or receive mail. I came here and read that free accounts can't have mail, but I have some kind of hope Thank you |

you should be able to set that one up in your control panel. being a free account, it will receive mail, but not send mail. before you do that, check out google apps http://www.google.com/apps/ i'm pretty sure you can do exactly what you are wanting to do there. |

Thanks I'm pretty sure I'm about to sound stupid here, but I can't figure out Google Apps. I am not a business or school or anything like that. My site's just a personal site, that's why I want to keep it free. I do believe Apps is for businesses, right? I'm not sure, any help would be nice! Thanks again I will set up a free account. I set one up yesterday in my cp but I closed it shortly after. I sent emails to it while it was open from my gmail account but it didn't come through so I gave up and closed it. I suppose I should leave it open for a while and see if the mail comes in. Thank you for your time. P.S. Barrie is cool (I live in the GTA) |

Hello FnCool, Where can I find the CName Record? I can't seem to find. I've already put the MX record from google a. Thanks. |

do you own your own domain? if so, you set it up from the site where you purchased your domain. log in, and look near the mx/dns records |
