What's Included
Everything in a Business Email Plan
Branded mailboxes
Create addresses at your own domain — name@yourbrand.com — instead of a generic provider. Every outbound email reinforces your brand identity.
Browser-based webmail
Access your inbox from any browser, no client setup required. Secure HTTPS interface with full compose, search, folders, and contact management.
IMAP and SMTP access
Connect any email client — Apple Mail, Outlook, Thunderbird, mobile apps — using standard IMAP/SMTP. Full sync across all devices.
Multiple mailboxes per domain
Set up separate addresses for different roles: info@, sales@, support@, invoices@. Each mailbox is independently accessible.
Catch-all and forwarders
Catch any email sent to your domain regardless of the prefix. Set up forwarding rules to route inbound mail to the right person automatically.
Spam and virus filtering
All inbound mail is filtered for spam and scanned for malware before it reaches your inbox. Adjustable sensitivity per mailbox.
Setup
How Email Setup Works
From domain to working inbox — typically completed within one business day.
1
Register or transfer your domain
Business email requires a domain you own. Register a new one or transfer your existing domain to BesidesHosting first.

Contact us with your domain name and the number of mailboxes you need. We'll provision the mail server and configure DNS records (MX, SPF, DKIM, DMARC) automatically.
3
Receive your credentials
We send you the mailbox credentials and connection settings by email. For teams, we provide a CSV of all credentials or an onboarding sheet.
4
Connect your clients
Use the provided IMAP/SMTP settings to connect your preferred email client, or use our webmail URL directly. Setup takes under 5 minutes per device.

FAQ
Business Email Questions
Do I need to already have a domain with BesidesHosting?
Yes. Business email is tied to a domain you own and manage. You can register a new domain or transfer an existing one to us as part of the setup process.
How many mailboxes can I create?
There is no hard limit. We support teams of any size. Pricing scales with the number of active mailboxes — contact us for a quote based on your requirements.
Can I keep my existing email history when switching?
Yes. If you are migrating from another provider, we can assist with IMAP-to-IMAP mailbox migration so your existing emails are preserved in the new account.
What is the storage limit per mailbox?
Storage allocations depend on the plan. We offer flexible quotas — contact us to discuss requirements for large inboxes or high-volume accounts.
Is DMARC and DKIM configured automatically?
Yes. We configure MX, SPF, DKIM, and DMARC DNS records as part of the email provisioning process. This improves deliverability and protects against spoofing.
