How do I create a domain email address?
The number of email accounts you can setup for your domain depends on your hosting package. On the Doteasy Starter plan, you are allowed to set up up to 10 domain email accounts. On the Doteasy Unlimited and Unlimited SSD 100 plans, you can create and manage virtually unlimited number of domain email accounts.
In this article, we will show you how to create domain user email accounts.
Your domain admin email account
By default, when you first signed up for your Doteasy web hosting services, a domain email account is created for you using your account’s main Member ID and password (that’s the Member ID and password you have provided us on your account services signup form). This is your account’s admin email account and it is through this account that you create additional user email accounts.
The admin email account doesn’t count towards your domain email account quota. But please do not remove the admin email account as it is needed for administrative operations, such as creating and managing user email accounts. If you have removed your admin email account, please contact us so that we can have it re-created for you.
To login to your domain email account, simply login to your Doteasy Member Zone with your account Member ID and password.
Once you’ve logged into Member Zone, click on Manage Email Accounts under the Email section.
Doteasy offers 2 different email platforms: cPanel and SmarterMail.
If you are on the cPanel email platform, you will be redirected to your account cPanel.
If you are on the SmarterMail email platform, you will be redirected to your admin email account’s SmarterMail webmail interface.

Once you’ve logged into your Member Zone and clicked on Manage Email Accounts, you will be redirected to your account’s cPanel.
- Click Email Accounts under Email.

Simple provide the username and password for the new user account and specify the mailbox quota. When ready, click Create Account.
Creating domain email user accounts on SmarterMail

When ready, click Save.
Logging into your domain user email account
Once you have created your domain user email account, you can log into the account via the Web Mail Login link on the Doteasy homepage.
Simply login with the user account’s username and password as you have specified during the user account’s creation process.
