We do not offer email hosting with our website builder platform. Alternatively, you can use Zoho Mail to create up to 5 emails per domain for free at zoho.com/mail 


To open an email account, follow these steps:


----------
Step 1 - Creating a Zoho account for your domain
----------

Go to https://mail.zoho.com/signup?type=org&plan=free and follow the instructions. You would need to associate your domain with your Zoho account.

 
-----------------------------------------------------------
Step 2 - Verifying your domain ownership:
-----------------------------------------------------------

Some changes need to be made in the domain's DNS records in your registrar account (where you bought the domain).

Verify the ownership of the domain by adding a CNAME into your domain's DNS.


• This is an example of the CNAME record you'll see in Zoho mail setup:

Log into your domain's DNS control panel to add the CNAME record:

1. In your cPanel, navigate to your DNS Zone Editor

2. Enter the CNAME record received from Zoho.

3. Return to the Zoho's email setup window, and click 'Verify'. Do not logout of your registrar account just yet. 

 

Continue with the setup steps until you reach the 'Change MX Records' step.

 

-------------------------------------------------

Step 3 - Changing the MX Records:
-------------------------------------------------

In your domain's DNS control panel:

1. Locate the MX entry panel.

2. Delete all existing MX entry records (Important: only Zoho's MX records should be there)

4. Enter the following entries and save the changes:
