Introduction

Some members of crew - usually department leads - will be issued with a Profound Decisions email account by Matt, so they can receive and send emails as part of their role.

These email addresses look like yourname@profounddecisions.co.uk

If you believe that you need an account, as part of your role, then please contact Matt to request one.

Accessing your PD email account

Your webmail inbox will look like this
The login page of the webmail portal

To login to your email account:

  1. Ensure you know your email address and password (ask Matt if you don't).
  2. Head to the hosting systems website.
  3. Enter your email address and password to login.
  4. You are taken to your webmail inbox (see image to the right).

If you experience issues with using webmail, first check the hosting systems help page for a solution, before reaching out to Matt for help.

Accessing your PD account from an email client

Most people aren't going to remember to login to a webmail and check it, so it's beneficial to use another client to access your PD emails.

Information on the settings you should use for your specific email client can be found on the hosting systems help page - look towards the bottom of the page and click on Find My Email Settings, then enter your full email address. The site will provide you with settings and instructions for configuring your email client.

Accessing your PD account from GMAIL

Many people already use GMAIL for their personal emails - it's possible to configure it to send and receive emails through your PD email account too, keeping all your emails in one handy place.

Step One: Head to the settings of your GMAIL account, select the Accounts and Import tab across the top, then click on the Add an email account link under the category Check email from other accounts.
