ah... I just want to ask...
how Do I set up the email/webmail in HM... such that...
suppose I have 5 domain names in my webhost...
I can set up
email@domain1.com
email@doman2.com
emial@domain3.com
email@domain4.com
email@domain5.com
and make some accounts too for the users of the webhost...

hi. yes you can do that from the HM cpanel. when you creating new email account, select the respective domain name.

Similarly... how can i get all possible names to dump into one main acct name? I had it set up this way with my old host and liked it because someone could email me at ANYTHING@MYDOMAIN.com and I'd get it.
Also I've signed up for lists/boards/etc to see if they do in fact share lists (or just so they dont have my real name/email)... I dont want to go recreate each acct name (I wouldn't know where to start aside of the few I use regularly).
So in other words if MINNIE@mydomain.com is my primary acct but i want me@mydomain.com, info@mydomain.com, hmboard@mydomain, dontspammeyou****ers@mydomain.com, etc to be accessible via one acct (minnie). its esp helpful when checking on a free webmail service.
HELP please! thank you!

You can do this with the Email Forwarders in cPanel. The only stipulation is that the username for each domain has to be the same.

I only have the one domain. With my other host it was a simple check of a box to get all acct names to route to one acct... I found the forwarding and added the few accts I use regularly but I would sign up for -eg- chasecreditcard@mydomain.com, hostmonsterboard@ , cnn@ , bandlist@ ,
I will never remember all those!
How do I get all acct names (for one domain) to dump into the one acct name (on the same domain)... without manually adding all the acct names?

thnx..
I'll just put their login in their own page right? o.o
however, can email@domain1 be able to login at domain2's email login page?

for this, you will need feature that is "Catch-All Email Addresses"...
which as i know, hostmonster is not providing this feature. might need to request from support ... try try.

hi. only the admin account can doing that, even so the mailbox will be different. for example.. this is how i login to 2 of my domain...

http://www.freedirectorysubmitter.org/webmail

Unfortunately, this feature was removed a couple months ago. Your best bet is to use an email client that can manage all the accounts and merge them into one box.
I use Opera to manage 5 different email addresses. All emails are displayed as a single mailbox, and any replies are automatically sent through the address in which the original email was received.
