If you have been reading my series of articles on business email, you will know that it is best to use your domain name as the basis of your business email address. But what if you own several websites and have many email addresses based on those domain names? Managing all those email accounts could get very tricky if not very tedious. In the following article I'll explain how to use a Yahoo email account to manage all of your email addresses - rather like an email command and control centre. You'll never miss another email again.

save you time and money, not least disappointment and frustration, both for
