===== Create a mailbox =====
**1. Start by clicking on "Manage" after the Mailboxes line that you see in your domain's control panel:**

{{ en:mail:mailboxadd01-en.png }}

You will then see the Gandi Mail administration section for your domain.

**2. Look for the "list of mailboxes:**

{{ en:mail:mailboxes02-en.png }}

...and click on the "**create**" button. This will bring up an email address creation form.

**3. Fill out the email address creation form.**

  * Leave **Mailbox** checked as the selected type. 
  * For "email account" choose the name that you want to appear before the @ sign.
  * Choose your **password** carefully (it is preferable to have a different one than for your Gandi handle) and then confirm it. 
  *The **back-up e-mail** isn't compulsory but we advise you to fill this field. 
  * **[[:en/mail/create-alias|Aliases]]** are like mail accounts which mirror the main e-mail.
<note>
It isn't necessary to type the @ and domain name in this field, since these aliases are implicitly tied to the domain.
</note>
  * Choose the quota limit for this particular email address
  * Check the box that you accept the technical limitations

**4. Click Submit to register the email address**
