I hope someone can answer this for me. On my personal website of
1worldradio.com, I have a mailbox icon where visitors can write to me. I want it to use a hostmonster address but eventually have it forwarded to my personal e-mail address. I think I have it set up at hostmonster but I'm not sure what the exact hyperlink address do I enter at the icon. I use frontpage for my web design. If this makes any sense whatsoever to you and you can help me I'd sincerely appreciate it.

Thanks

if you talking about having a name@hostmonster.com, then you cant.

Set up a dummy email address for your account and then have it forwarded to your real address.

RDM: Thanks for your quick response, but you'd have been more accurate to say "set up an e-mail account Dummy." because I'm not all that sure I know exactly how to do that. What I really think I wanted is what you say I can't have (name@hostmonster.com) Oh well, I'll try to figure it out and set up a dummy account. Thanks again!

you can however, use username@box#.hosmonster.com

The username is the first 8 letters of your domain name and your box number is the last numbers in your IP address. You can find you IP address by either looking in your cPanel or pinging your domain name. The email will be sent to your main account. You'd have to either monitor that account or set up an email forwarder to another account that you monitor.

You can set up email forwarders in cPanel.
