Preamble
- Except for certain free offers, an email address at Infomaniak is always created within an Email Service, and this Email Service revolves around a personalized domain name that must exist and be configured for the email to work.
- Example: you want the address
jean.dupont@domain.xyz
‍ then you need to:- Own the domain name “
domain.xyz
”. - Get a Mail Service “
domain.xyz
”. - Create the email address “
jean.dupont
”.
- Own the domain name “
- All of this is offered and requested during the ordering process on infomaniak.com (see below), preceded by the creation of a mandatory user account (for which you will need to provide your personal email address, or an address that already exists in any case).
- If the corresponding domain name is already registered with an external registrar, you may need to enter the correct MX record in the DNS zone.
