I cannot delete a wrong email address from Windows Mail. I put a person's email as - '' gmail.com.au'' instead of ''gmail.com'' & can't delete the original address.

    I tried the solution, but because the " contacts" address is correct I can't change the email address in " write email", where it says " type recipients name,etc," it still comes up wrong.

    I believe I may have the same problem. The wrong address has been deleted from the contacts folder but when you create new mail and enter the first couple letters of the recipients address the old incorrect address is displayed automatically from the drop down menu as one of the choices. Does this better define the problem you have?

    I'm confused, you said the e-mail address was incorrect and then correct. Either way you should be able to change it. I just tried it in Windows mail and had no problem. Try changing it from this way. When you get the New Message window up, next to the box where you type in the recipients name, select TO: In the contact listing, select the contacts name then select the name and e-mail tab. This si hte same window where you treid to change the e-mail address earlier. If yu select the e-mail address and select edit, you should be able to make any changes and have it show up in the Type resipients name box.

How do I log into emails 0n my laptop

You can access your emails through your email client eg Apple Mail or Microsoft Outlook. Before configuring your device, you will first need to create your email account through cPanel. Your cPanel account login details were sent to you when you first registered with Netorigin. If you are unsure on how to create an email account, then please refer to the following article.

Once the email account has been created you can then access your emails on your computer or laptop. In order to do this you will need to open your email program (eg MS Outlook, Apple Mail), enter in your email address and password, and follow the prompts.

For most programs this is all you need to enter, however some programs require you to enter in additional details which can be found below:

Username: The email address you are checking email for (i.e. [email protected])
Password: The email address password specified

Incoming Host Address (IMAP or POP3): mail.yourdomainname.com.au (where yourdomainname.com.au is the domain name for the email account)
Outgoing Host Address (SMTP): mail.yourdomainname.com.au (where yourdomainname.com.au is the domain name for the email account)

IMAP Incoming Port (recommended): 993
POP3 Incoming Port: 995
Outgoing SMTP Port: 26

If you are using an Apple Device (eg Apple Mac) please select "Advanced" and enter in the following:
Port: 993
Use SSL: Tick
Authentication: Password (on some devices you may need to tick a box instead)
Allow insecure authentication: Tick

If you are using a Windows Device (eg Microsoft Outlook) please enter in the following:
Click 'More Settings'
Click the tab 'Outgoing'
Tick 'Outgoing Server requires Authentication' then click OK

Why do my emails to others show windows live mail not my personal email address?

Really need more info than what you gave.
Your emails are sending through the Live mail server. Your personal email? is that from your Internet Service Provider (ISP)? Check the setting or options on your email client (program) it should have a reply to field you could set that as your personal email address. It is also possibly where the setting is that is sending through the live mail server.
You might need to set your ISP as the default. For example I use Thunderbird. It checks my ISP email and 3 Gmail addresses but when I send by default I send through one of my Gmail addresses but I can use a drop down box to select a different send server if I want to appear as coming from a different address.

Yahoo email doesn't reach gmail inbox

There is a high chance that Google is not actually receiving the emails concerned. By any chance are some of them automatically generated and not actually sent by a person directly using Yahoo (i.e. a Yahoo web page or a Yahoo SMTP server) ? My mind is suspicious that the MX is set up wrong at the transmitting server and that server is therefore not Yahoo's own server.

Can i open a gmail account and still make people believe it is coming from my old email address

In a way, yes. Once you open up your gmail account, go to Mail Settings *under the gear in the upper-right corner*, then go to Accounts and Settings, and click the button "send mail as another account." It will go through a process where it sends an email to the other address and you need to verify it, then you can send emails and have them appear as the other address.
Just remember: when you compose the email you need to change the Send From field to reflect the address you desire the recipient to see.
Hope this helps!
