E-mail is now necessary for virtually any action: registering on a social network, doing business. In turn, entrepreneurs mainly have their own personal website, where they offer various kinds of services. To look more solid and competitive, mail with your own domain will come in handy to advertise the proposed product. If there are too many users, this service will also be needed.
An email domain is a set of mailboxes that are linked by one name. In addition to the main one, it may have other names. They are synonymous with the main domain name. Based on this, all mailboxes without exception have one common part, which begins after the @ symbol and is the main name or its synonym.
Reasons for creating mail for a domain outside your host
For a domain, mail is not transferred to other resources due to several dozen people, but if this is a large comparative site with thousands of users, then this action willvery useful and necessary.
Often this transfer is done to save space. The base capacity provided by the host has a strict limit of approximately 10 GB of memory. This amount is not enough even for a hundred addresses, not to mention thousands. Based on this, it is inappropriate to spend such a meager space on postal addresses, and the best option would be to leave this space for the needs of the resource.
There is a special need for a large volume for postal addresses when there are more than 2-3 hundred users. The situation is aggravated by the correspondence between registered site visitors, which uses a large amount of data. The most common example of sending this amount of information to each other is communication between employees of a commercial site related to sales.
For these reasons, mail is essential for a domain, and creating it on third-party resources will provide special benefits, such as:

- Familiar appearance. Often, it is the large search engines that provide services to provide space for the domain. Their mail looks quite recognizable, so you don’t need to spend a lot of time onto get comfortable with the interface.
- Free space available. Services that provide mail space services are mostly free. Although there are paid options, their services are almost the same.
