How to Create a Professional Email with Your Domain

Hosting & Server July 2026 · 4 min read

Why Use a Professional Email?

Sending emails from info@yourbusiness.com looks 10x more professional than a Gmail or Yahoo address. It builds trust with clients, looks credible on business cards, and keeps your personal and business communication separate. All SkyeFlare hosting plans include free professional email accounts.

Step 1 — Access Your Hosting Control Panel

Login to your SkyeFlare dashboard → click Control Panel in the top menu. This opens your hosting panel where all server features are managed.

Step 2 — Create an Email Account

1. In Control Panel, find Email Accounts (under Email section)
2. Click Create
3. Enter the username — e.g. type info to create info@yourdomain.com
4. Set a strong password (use the generator for maximum security)
5. Set mailbox size — 1GB is enough for most businesses
6. Click Create Account

Step 3 — Access Your Email via Webmail

The quickest way to read email is Webmail — no setup needed. In Control Panel → Email Accounts → click the Check Email button next to your email. Choose Roundcube (recommended) as your webmail client.

Or access Webmail directly at: yourdomain.com/webmail

Step 4 — Connect to Gmail (Optional)

You can send and receive your professional email directly in Gmail:

• Gmail → Settings → Accounts → Add a mail account
• Enter your professional email address
• IMAP Server: mail.yourdomain.com | Port: 993 (SSL)
• SMTP Server: mail.yourdomain.com | Port: 465 (SSL)
• Enter your email username and password

Step 5 — Connect to Outlook

• Outlook → File → Add Account → enter your email
• Manual setup: choose IMAP
• Incoming: mail.yourdomain.com Port 993 SSL
• Outgoing: mail.yourdomain.com Port 465 SSL

Common Email Issues & Fixes

• Emails going to spam: Set up SPF, DKIM, and DMARC records in DNS
• Can't send email: Make sure SMTP port 465 is enabled — contact support if blocked
• Mailbox full: Increase storage in Control Panel → Email Accounts → Edit
