Mobile Webmail System

We're happy to announce the launch of our all-new mobile webmail system available to all HostGator customers. This interface works on all mobile phones and can be custom branded with your domain name!

To see a demo of this system simply visit: Mobile Mail

Simply login from your smartphone with your Email Address and Password and you're ready to go!

Setting up Mobile Mail

To setup mobilemail.example.com all you have to do is add the mobilemail CNAME listed below within your domain's DNS zone and once the DNS has updated (normally less than 4 hours) you can access it with mobilemail.example.com.

The necessary DNS change is as follows:

mobilemail IN CNAME mobilemail.websitewelcome.com.

Here is how to make that change in cPanel:

  1. Login to your cPanel and go to "Simple DNS Zone Editor"
  2. Type mobilemail in "Name" and mobilemail.websitewelcome.com in "CNAME"
  3. Click the "Add CNAME Record" button
  4. Now you can visit mobilemail.domain.com (be sure to replace domain.com with your actual domain name)

If you do not know how to do this, contact us via phone or chat and we will assist with performing this task.
