Step 1: Set Up Email Forwarding (Receive Domain Emails in Gmail)
Before Gmail can receive your domain emails, you need to forward all incoming mail from your domain email to your Gmail inbox.
How to Set Up Forwarding:
-
Log in to your domain webmail or hosting control panel (e.g.,
https://netpoa.tz/webmail
or cPanel). -
Find the Forwarders or Email Forwarding section.
-
Create a forwarder for your domain email:
-
Forward all mail sent to
yourname@netpoa.tz
-
To your Gmail address:
yourgmail@gmail.com
-
-
Save the forwarder.
Note: Some hosts also allow you to set automatic forwarding inside webmail settings directly.
Step 2: Add Your Domain Email to Gmail to Send as "you@netpoa.tz"
-
Open Gmail → Settings → Accounts and Import tab
-
Under Send mail as, click Add another email address
-
Enter your name and your domain email address (
yourname@netpoa.tz
) -
Click Next Step
-
Enter SMTP server details:
-
SMTP Server:
mail.netpoa.tz
-
Port: 465 (SSL) or 587 (TLS)
-
Username:
yourname@netpoa.tz
-
Password: your email password
-
-
Choose Secured connection using SSL or TLS
-
Click Add Account
-
Gmail sends a verification code/link to
yourname@netpoa.tz
-
Retrieve the code/link from your Gmail inbox (thanks to forwarding)
-
Enter the code and verify or click the link to verify
✅ Now You Can Send and Receive Your Domain Email From Gmail!
-
Incoming domain emails will forward automatically to Gmail.
-
Outgoing emails can be sent from Gmail using your domain email address.
-
When composing emails in Gmail, use the From dropdown to choose your domain address.
Optional: Fetch Emails Using POP3 (Instead of Forwarding)
If you prefer not to use forwarding, you can configure Gmail to fetch emails directly from your domain email server:
-
In Gmail settings, under Accounts and Import → Check mail from other accounts, add your domain email using POP3.
-
Use these settings:
-
POP Server:
mail.netpoa.tz
-
Port: 995 (SSL)
-
Username: your full email address
-
Password: email password
