Get email into your Email Center Pro account (Account Owner/Administrator only)

There are two options for getting your existing email address and routing mail into Email Center Pro:

POP Mail (recommended)

With this option, Email Center Pro retrieves your email for you. The email accounts you’d like to retrieve email from must support POP access. While the majority of email accounts support POP access, some free email services and some Microsoft Exchange installations don't offer POP server access to their users at this time. Contact your other Web mail provider to determine if POP access is available with your current email account.

PROCEDURES

  1. Locate the login links along the top of your screen (Logged in as...)
  2. Click the Account & Tools link
  3. Click the Mailboxes tab
  4. Click to select a mailbox from the list on the left
  5. On the right side of the dialog, find the POP Accounts header (at the bottom)
  6. Click the Add POP Account button to open the POP server dialog
  7. Fill in the POP server account information
  8. Click for details
  9. Click Save and Close to save the your new Mailbox settings

After you set up POP Mail Checking, Email Center Pro checks for new messages every five minutes and new mail will appear automatically in your Email Center Pro designated mailbox.

Please note:

  • You can route as many POP mail accounts to an Email Center Pro mailbox as you would like.
  • Once you start sending emails into your new Email Center Pro account you will need to make sure to disable any other email programs that were receiving mail before you started using Email Center Pro. This is to ensure that all email routes to Email Center Pro only.
  • If you want to stop routing emails to your Email Center Pro mailbox, you can click the Remove link to delete the POP server connection for the mailbox.

Forwarding

You can forward email to Email Center Pro from your existing email addresses (e.g. sales@yourcompanyname.com, info@yourcompanyname.com). This might be the "reply-to" and "from" address for this account so that customers will always see mail as coming from sales@yourcompanyname.com or any other address you specify. 

NOTE: Forwarding is usually set up on your mail server which you will have access to through your Internet Service Provider or the service provider that manages your email (example: GMail and Yahoo). If you manage your own mail server (such as Microsoft Exchange), you will need to log in to the mail server and forward your email through the mail server's interface.
