After obtaining a web site, you may wish to have email addresses associated with that website--just like a uSight.com employee named Marianne might have the address marianne@usight.com, you might want yourname@yourdomainname.com.
To request email addresses, review the definitions, rules, examples, and suggestions shown below and submit your request as shown in the "Making the Request" section.
Note: These definitions, rules, examples, and suggestions are subject to change at any time without notification.
Definitions
Definition 1: Account - an email address that uniquely identifies you on the server without the @yourdomainname.com portion of the address.
Definition 2: Alias - an email address that links to an email address that is an account; emails sent to the alias address are retrieved with the emails sent to the account itself.
Rules
Rule 1: You are allowed up to ten email addresses.
Rule 2: Of those ten addresses, at least one must be an account.
See examples concerning this rule
See exception to this rule
Rule 3: Your username for each email account must be what appears before the "@" sign of that email account.
See examples concerning this rule
See exception to this rule
Rule 4: You must specify a password to be associated with each email account, unless the email account is an outside account as described in the above exception to Rule 2.
See examples concerning this rule
Rule 5: Generic addresses must be aliases.
See examples concerning this rule
See examples of "generic addresses"
Rule 6: Addresses that could be accounts but aren't available must be aliases.
See examples concerning this rule
See examples of such addresses
Rule 7: If you request any aliases and more than one account, you must specify to which account each alias should link.
See examples concerning this rule
Rule 8: If you don't have your own domain name, you can have only actual accounts--aliases are available only to sites with their own domain name.
See examples concerning this rule
Rule 9: Your email addresses must end in the same domain name used to access your site, except as noted below in Rule 10 and as noted in the exception for Rule 2.
See examples concerning this rule
Rule 10: If you have a domain name that is hosted on another server but that redirects to your website.ubuilder.com/yourname site, it is as if you had no domain name for email purposes, and Rule 7 applies.
See examples concerning this rule
Rule 11: Your email addresses can not be created until you have arranged to have your domain name transferred to the uSight.com servers or have arranged to purchase your domain name through uSight.com. Once such arrangements have been made, your email addresses will not function until the domain name has been configured, installed, and fully linked to your site on uSight.com's servers.
See examples concerning this rule
Suggestions
Suggestion 1: Get a Catch-all Alias - Request one account and one catch-all alias. Any email sent to any address at your domain name will then get sent to that one account. (Available only if your site and domain name meet Rules 8, 10, and 11.)
See example concerning this suggestion
