Create a professional email address in your own name (contact@your-business.cm)

In short: to create an address such as contact@your-business.cm, you need a domain name and hosting with email. At ZoomLab, every plan includes 10 to 100 professional addresses, which you can read in webmail, on your phone (Gmail, Outlook, Mail) and on your computer.

Why drop Gmail or Yahoo for your business?

• Credibility: orders@bastos-pharmacy.cm inspires far more trust than bastospharmacy2024@gmail.com.
• Branding: every email you send reminds people of your company name and website.
• Control: when a team member leaves, the address and its history stay with you.
• Tenders: many public and private buyers expect a professional address.

Steps to create your address

1. Register your .cm domain name.
2. Choose a hosting plan that includes email.
3. Create your addresses in cPanel, under "Email Accounts": address name, password, allocated space.
4. Read your email in webmail, or add the account to your phone.

Setting up email on your phone

In the Gmail, Outlook or Mail app on your smartphone, add an IMAP account using the details shown in cPanel (incoming server, outgoing server, ports). Your email then syncs between your phone, your computer and webmail.

Keeping your emails out of spam

What are SPF, DKIM and DMARC?

They are three DNS records that prove to other mail servers that your emails really come from your domain. At ZoomLab, SPF and DKIM are set up by default, and we help you put DMARC in place.

What good practices should I follow?

Use a clear signature, avoid very large attachments, do not send mass campaigns from your everyday mailbox, and ask regular contacts to add you to their address book.
