You can always get a free emails at live.com, gmail.com , hotmail.com or yahoo.com but when it comes for professionals you would always need a email like [email protected] , which is completely free service found under your cpanel options. But the problem comes while managing them because many of these webmail programs are not able to detect the spams coming to your email.
I have around 40 email accounts all working for my company and staff and its not easy to manage each of them. But i manage each of these using google apps services which is another excellent service by google which offers the best email service for [email protected] email accounts.
Google Apps Info:
Give your users Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Talk accounts that use your own custom domain, helping them to stay connected and work together more effectively. New! IMAP support for Gmail. Google Docs lets users share files and collaborate in real-time. The Start Page is the first place your users will look to preview their inboxes and calendars, access your essential content, and search the web.It’s all hosted by Google, so there’s no hardware or software to install or download, and minimal setup and maintenance. You can get up and running quickly, even if you don’t have technical resources.
With Google Apps, you can give employees powerful communication and collaboration tools that will help bring their productivity to the next level. Google Apps includes email with professional addresses like [email protected] and up to 25 gigabytes of storage per account. All your emails are hosted with google and you dont need to download any script/software like outlook express to manage these because it works similar to gmail.com because the interface is completely similar to gmail and you get all the spam protection, email forwarding, google docs, calender and google talk which is a instant messenger service integrated with your account.
Setting up this service is very easy , with the first step being signing up with google apps – standard edition or premier edition @ http://www.google.com/a/help/intl/en/admins/editions.html
Once you signup and create the admin email then you can manage the main admin email and create user accounts and at the same time you need to change the MX Extry under your hosting account.
Procedure : Web Hosting Cpanel > Mail [Mail Manager Main Menu] > Modify Mail Exchanger (MX Entry) > Change a MX Entry > add this : ASPMX.L.GOOGLE.COM
Once the above changes are done all the emails from your cpanel hosting accounts are moved to google apps based hosting account and now you can handle upto 50 email accounts for each domain name for free.
Let me know if you find any problems in setting up this system.
