Enter the first and last name of the account holder, the account holder's login name (without the domain -- e.g. sally) and then the password which must be six letters long and must be made up of a combination of letters and numbers (symbols that are caps of numbers are okay -- e.g. ! is the cap of the number 1 and can be included in a password). Then confirm the password. Hit submit. Note: if you get an error, read it and fix what it tells you is wrong. Often this is a username that is already in use so change the username slightly to make it unique -- e.g. sally00.

Sometimes it shows a status of "pending". Don't worry about that. The server is creating the email account. In fact, if you hit "refresh" at the top of the screen, the status will probably change to "Active". |
