SMTP Authentication

When setting up POP3 account(s) in your e-mail software, you will need to enable SMTP authentication if you choose to use your hosting account for sending mail (instead of using your ISP's mail server).
The SMTP authorization login name / password is the same as your POP3 account login name / password.

Setting a Catch-All Address

When the server receives e-mail to addresses that don't exist, it has to do something with those messages. The control panel gives you three options:

Forwarders

Forwarders allow you to direct incoming mail to a different address.For example, assume you wanted e-mail sent to support@yourdomain.com and sales@yourdomain.com to arrive at the POP3 account customerservice@yourdomain.com. You can create two forwarders that will let you do this.

For example, some companies keep updated price lists on an autoresponder. Potential customers would e-mail pricelist@domain.com and they would receive the price list in their e-mail inbox within moments.
