# Business Email Hosting on Your Own Domain | WebProjectUK > Professional email on your own domain: mailboxes set up, domain records configured, devices connected, and email moved from your current provider. Canonical URL: https://webprojectuk.com/business-email-hosting/ Last updated: 2026-09-24 --- # Business email hosting Email at your own domain, set up properly from the start An address like you@yourbusiness.co.uk looks more professional than a free email account, and it stays yours if you change provider. We set up the mailboxes, the records your domain needs, and your devices, and we can move your existing email across. - Mailboxes on your own domain - Domain records set up for reliable delivery - Email moved from your current provider Ask About Business Email How it works ## Where are you now? - **You use a free email address** Customers see a personal address rather than your business name. - **Email is tied to old hosting** Your email lives with a website host you want to leave. - **Staff share one mailbox** You need separate addresses for people or departments. - **Nobody knows how it was set up** The person who set it up has gone and something needs changing. - **Delivery is unreliable** Messages go missing or to junk. See [business email help](https://webprojectuk.com/business-email-help/). ## What we set up ### Mailboxes and addresses Set up the mailboxes and shared addresses you need, such as info@ or accounts@. ### Domain records Configure MX, SPF, DKIM and DMARC so your email is delivered and recognised as genuine. ### Phones and computers Help connect your mailboxes on the devices you use. ### Email migration Move existing messages, folders and contacts from your current provider where possible. ### Website forms Make sure your website’s contact forms deliver to the right mailbox. ### Help when needed Someone to ask when a new starter needs an address or a device will not connect. ## Moving email from another provider Moving email is mostly about timing. Done in the right order, new messages keep arriving throughout. 1. Prepare the new mailboxes Set up the new addresses before anything changes, so they are ready to receive. 2. Copy existing email Move messages and folders across from the old provider, where it allows. 3. Switch the domain records Update MX and related records at an agreed time, so new mail goes to the new mailboxes. 4. Connect devices and check Reconnect phones and computers, send test messages, and catch anything that arrived late at the old provider. ## What we need to quote - Your domain name - How many mailboxes or addresses you need - Who provides your email now, if anyone - Roughly how much existing email needs to move - The devices and email programs you use **Please never send passwords or login details** through our forms or by email.

It depends on the number of mailboxes and whether existing email needs moving, so we quote for your setup. There is no public price list yet. ### Will I lose emails during the move? We plan the switch so new mail keeps arriving, and move existing messages across where the old provider allows. We explain what to expect before we start. ### Can I keep my current email addresses? Yes, if they are on your own domain. Only the service behind them changes. ### Can you guarantee my emails reach the inbox? No one can. Correct domain records give your email the best chance, and we set those up properly. ### Do you need my current email password? Never send passwords through a form or by email. If access is needed to move your email, we will agree a safe way to arrange it. ## Ask About Business Email Tell us about your domain and how many mailboxes you need. ## Website help request ## Related help ### [Business email help](https://webprojectuk.com/business-email-help/) Missing, bouncing or junked email. ### [Managed website hosting](https://webprojectuk.com/managed-website-hosting/) Hosting for your website. ### [Website migration](https://webprojectuk.com/website-migration/) Moving website and email together.
