PlusMail Web Control
Return
to Main Index
Our innovative PlusMail Web Control panel
allows you to control your web presence from a web browser.
This virtually eliminates the need for Novice Users to learn
and use FTP and Telnet. The more familiar interface of the web
browser, combined with point and click simplicity, makes the
PlusMail Web Control panel an extremely user-friendly web management
system.
The PlusMail Web Control panel is included
in all accounts. Your PlusMail Web Control panel will be personalized
for you with your domain name and weekly website traffic stats.
To access the one on your domain go to:
http://yourdomain.com/cgi-bin/plusmail
NOTE: Due to
the unique security requirement of the administration system
you must have you browser set to allow cookies. This, in conjunction
with a number of hidden verification systems assures you are
the only user allowed to access these features on your domain.    
Add Features
This page allows you to add extra features to
your account. Please see pricing schedule for the features you
want. You can add POP/FTP/Telnet accounts (Add-on Option), and
specify the username and password you want used. You may also
add msql or mysql for database capabilities. You can even setup
and view your parked domains (Add-on Option).

Email Redirects
Email Redirects are used to redirect email from
one address to another. For example, you might have sales@yourdomain.com
automatically redirected to your sales persons personal
email address, and support@yourdomain.com redirected to
your support persons personal email address, and so on.
You may also have redirects set up to send email to more than
one address. For example, you may have all email addressed to
support@yourdomain.com redirected to all of the members of your
support staff.    
You may have as many redirects as you like,
and with PlusMail, setting them up is as simple as filling in
the blanks. Once you've logged into your PlusMail Web Control,
select the Email Redirects button from the panel menu.
- Address: Enter
the name or title portion of the address only. For example,
sales or info
- Forward To:
Enter the FULL valid email address that you want the email forwarded
to. For example, joe@elsewhere.com (Type carefully.
If you make an error the email will be forwarded to an incorrect
email address)
- Also Forward To:
If applicable, enter the FULL valid email address of others
you want this email to go to. For example, jack@overthere.com
- Edit:
To edit your existing redirects, simply change the information
in the entry fields.
- Add/Edit Redirects:
You MUST click this button to Save your changes.
Things to know:
- If you remove the default email address,
email will only be redirected to the specific aliases listed.
For example, if an email is sent to help@yourdomain.com and you
have not listed "help" as an alias, the email will
not be redirected. You will then need to log into your domain
POP account to retrieve it.
- If you prefer to log directly into your domain
POP account to retrieve email and do not wish to have any redirected,
then simply remove the default email address.

or title, such as join or info.
