Steps include creating email accounts in your Bluehost Portal, and accessing mail via Webmail or configuring your preferred email client on desktop or mobile devices.

Start by creating email accounts in your Bluehost Portal. You can manage or remove accounts as needed with simple tools available in your account.

Access Your Email via Webmail
