| Once you own a domain name, you can use it for your emails. Your email address can be:
anything@yourcompany.com. Such address is easy to remember and its yours
to keep forever. You can change from one ISP to another and still use the same email
address! First in your email software, you will need to set the return address
or from address as: yourname@yourcompany.com. So when
you send someone an email, it will appear as from: yourname@yourcompany.com, such
as joe@GreatInc.com. You can set your return address to be anything you like, such as
bill@clinton.org. However, if you don't own the domain name, return emails won't be
delivered to you.
Second, you will need to setup your domain name routing table to make sure all emails
addressed to: yourname@yourcompany.com will be delivered to your mailbox.
To setup your domain email routing, you will need to go to our domain email
server at: http://mail.bestnet.net. You can
change your email routing table 24 hours a day. There is no limit on how many changes you
can make. There is no per user or mailbox charges. There is no updating fees.
When you construct an email forwarding table. Please use one of the following examples.
We use domain name: GreatInc.com as an example.
- Situation I: only one forward-to address
Email forwarding table:
GreatInc.com GreatInc@aol.com
The above email forwarding table means all emails addressed to GreatInc.com (i.e.
anything@GreatInc.com) will be forwarded to: GreatInc@aol.com.
- Situation II: multiple forward-to addresses, accept emails at any user name.
Email forwarding table:
sales@GreatInc.com 12536.234@compuserve.com
order@GreatInc.com joe253@ix.netcom.com
judy@GreatInc.com PHHD87A@prodigy.com
GreatInc.com GreatInc@aol.com
The above email forwarding table means:
emails addressed to: sales@GreatInc.com will be forwarded to: 12536.234@compuserve.com
emails addressed to: order@GreatInc.com will be forwarded to: joe253@ix.netcom.com
emails addressed to: judy@GreatInc.com will be forwarded to: PHHD87A@prodigy.com
all other emails for GreatInc.com (i.e. AnythingElse@GreatInc.com) will be forwarded to:
GreatInc@aol.com.
There is no limit on how many forwarding lines you can have.
- Situation III: multiple forward-to addresses, accept emails for only listed users.
Email forwarding table:
sales@GreatInc.com 12536.234@compuserve.com
order@GreatInc.com joe253@ix.netcom.com
judy@GreatInc.com PHHD87A@prodigy.com
The above email forwarding table means:

emails addressed to: order@GreatInc.com will be forwarded to: joe253@ix.netcom.com
emails addressed to: judy@GreatInc.com will be forwarded to: PHHD87A@prodigy.com
