To Set up a New Email Address
- Log in to your Account Manager.
- Click Email.

Now, return to the Email list and, next to the account you want to use, click Manage. (You may need to refresh your browser for the new email plan to display in your list.)
- At the top of the Email Address list, click Create. The Create Account window displays with your most frequently used, available Email Plan selected by default.
- Optional: To use a different email plan, under Email, click Change Plan. On the Email tab, from the Plan list, select an available free email credit. Then, if you have not already, select the Region where you are using this email account, select the domain name you want to use, and then click OK.
