To connect your domain for email service only, follow these steps: #
1. Open the Domain Panel #
- Navigate to the domain panel by clicking on “Sites” in the left-side menu.
- Once the page is open, you’ll see a link to “Connected Domains” at the top of the page. Click on that.
2. Add Your Domain #
- Click on the ‘Add Domain’ button to add your domain to the system.
3. Select Domain Type #
- The system will give you the option to add either a free domain or a custom domain.
- For this case, select the custom domain option and enter your domain name.
Difference between Free Domain and Custom Domain: #
- Free Domain: Provided by the system, often with limited customization.
- Custom Domain: You can use a domain you own, giving you full control over it.
- After selecting, click on the ‘Next’ button.
4. Select Services #
- By default, Website Hosting will be enabled.
- Since you only need Email Service, uncheck the ‘Web Hosting’ option.
- Click on the checkbox for ‘Email sending’, and add the email address you want to connect to the system for email services.
- Adding email service will not interfere with your existing email services.
- Note: You can add your email address to automatically create an inbox for the system. This is optional and can be done later.
- Important: Avoid adding your email address during this step to prevent unwanted issues. You can connect it after domain verification.
- Click on ‘Next’ after selecting your services.
5. Choose a Faster CDN (Optional) #
- The system will offer you the option to choose a faster CDN for a better experience at $5/month.
- If you don’t need this service, click ‘No, Thank You’.
6. Collect DNS Records #
- The system will generate the necessary DNS records to add to your domain registrar.
- After receiving the DNS records, log in to your domain registrar and add them to your DNS settings.
- Wait for DNS propagation, which can take 24-48 hours.
