How to Create a Webmail Email Account


So, you only have that business e-mail address, and you're not allowed to use it out of work. You want an email of your own that you can use anytime you want? Read this guide!

EditSteps

  1. 1
    Search. Search on your favorite search engine, such as Google or Ask Jeeves. Search "email" and "mail" as your search terms. View every page that says free email.

  2. 2
    Features. Does it have Virus Protection? Does it have a spam filter? How much space is there to put all of your emails in?

  3. 3
    POP/IMAP/SMTP. Can you receive emails through POP or IMAP servers? Can you use their SMTP servers? Can you do all this for free?

  4. 4
    Pick an email provider from that Search Engine search. Which one has these features?

  5. 5
    Name. Pick a good name. Short names attract more spam such as bob@gmail.com. If you make your username your full name such as john.smith@gmail.com, you might get a lot of spam as well because some spammers try random names like that. You might want to try something longer.

  6. 6
    Registration. Register that perfect username. Remember to use it only for personal use. If you will get some email from your business put them in your contacts or a whitelist, so the mails from your business won't get into your spam/bulk mail folder.
