How do you setup your own email address?

There's 2 parts to an e-mail address - the part before the @ sign and the part after it.





If you sign up with an e-mail provider such as Yahoo or Hotmail the only part you get to chose is the part before the @ sign so for example, you could have mangelbaby at yahoo.com or mangelbaby at hotmail.com.





I've used the word 'at' in place of the @ sign - yopu should never post an e-mail address on the internet and especially not in a popular forum as it will be found by 'e-mail harvesters' and you'll get spammed forever more.





If you're wanting your own name after the @ sign then you have to register the domain name. So for example, you register mangelbaby.com then you can have whatever you want before the @ sign e.g. me at mangelbaby.com, fred at mangelbaby.com, 123 at mangelbaby.com.





Registering a domain name costs a few dollars a year. Once you've got the domain you need a webhosting package which will also cost, these are available at many different levels from a basic package costing a few dollars to very sophisticated packages costing thousands of dollars.
