Get a profesional email address

I will like to use my domain name and create an email account like contact@skip-theline.ca and use it to send or receive emails.

Hi there,

What you could do is to use a control panel like Plesk for example. You could install Plesk on a new Droplet with this 1-Click option here:

Plesk comes with a full-fledged eMail server included. Manage multiple users and mailboxes per domain. Or offer eMail hosting to your customers. Note: to set up your reverse DNS record required to run an eMail service.

On another note, I could also suggest taking a look at this tutorial here:

Hope that this helps. Regards, Bobby

Hello, @claudekamgakamgueu

Can you please clarify if you’re looking to build your own mail server in order to send/receive emails? You can use your domain name and create an email account like contact@yourdomain.com and use it to send or receive emails.
