CounselWeb E-Mail Names - The Basics

Do these e-mail addresses look better than your current e-mail address? CounselWeb can upgrade your existing e-mail account -- regardless of who your e-mail provider is -- and provide you with e-mail names like these.

Here's how it works. E-mail addresses have two components: a user name (to the left of the @ sign) and a domain name (to the right of the @ sign). For example, in the email address snoopy421@ix.compuline.net, the user name is snoopy421 and the domain name is ix.compuline.net.


CounselWeb E-Mail Names - The Benefits

Even though e-mail is a valuable tool, many lawyers omit their e-mail address from their business cards and letterhead. We have found that there are two general reasons for this:

  1. Many e-mail addresses do not look professional. Most commercial domain names are the technical name of a computer company, and many people have chosen something humerous, numerical, or incomprehensible for their user name. snoopy421@ix.compuline.net does not look like it belongs on a lawyer's business card or letterhead.
  2. Many people are considering changing their internet service provider and do not want to put a soon-to-be obsolete e-mail address on letterhead and business cards.

CounselWeb e-mail addresses can solve all three problems. CounselWeb can provide you or your law firm with an e-mail address at one of our domain names OR we can register your firm name (or anything else) as a domain name for you. CounselWeb e-mail addresses are simple to use, professional, portable, and consistent.

SIMPLICITY - MAIL IS FORWARDED IN SECONDS - An e-mail message sent to a CounselWeb e-mail account is passed along though our on-line mail server to your e-mail account. This happens in a matter of seconds, and the entire process is invisible to both you and to the sender.

SIMPLICITY - YOUR REPLY ADDRESS IS CORRECT - Your outgoing e-mail contains a reply address listing your e-mail address. This reply address shows up on the recipient's screen when new mail comes in, and the recipient can reply to your e-mail simply by hitting the 'reply' button on his or her e-mail program. You can easily to change this reply address to your new CounselWeb e-mail address by simply typing it in the 'options' or 'preferences' page. Details here.

PROFESSIONAL LOOK - A humerous, technical, or incomprehensible e-mail name does not project a professional image. And there is no reason to use your e-mail address to advertise your internet provider rather than your own law practice. CounselWeb e-mail names can help you identify your legal practice area or specialty or your own law firm.

PORTABILITY - CHANGE E-MAIL PROVIDERS WITHOUT CHANGING YOUR E-MAIL ADDRESS - With a CounselWeb e-mail address, you can easily change your e-mail provider without changing your e-mail address. To change your e-mail provider, simply notify us of your new e-mail address, and we will configure our mail server to forward your e-mail to your new account.

This benefit is likely to be more important than most people realize. The internet is growing tremendously and undergoing enormous change. Several internet service providers have already gone out of business or merged with other companies. Other have provided poor service or increased their prices. These trends are likely to continue. There is no need to lock yourself in to an e-mail provider simply because too many people have your e-mail address.
