[Maccabee]

How can i make my website kind of like yahoo and let people get an email.

example@example.com

How can i start or find some tuts.

would it be really hard.

or is it just some steps.

i guess i could use php and stuff to make a create account page.
and then a log in page.
And then a inbox page.

Help!?

actuall it will.

as of right I guess you can, but if your planning on a yahoo type site, getting an unmetered account from hostmonster wont do, trust me, you need dedicated servers

[amish-hammer]

i think you might have to buy a web page to start it out and then if you know what your doing it should work but it will probably take a lot of work.

I have a website.

The reason i think an unlimited hostmonster account is enough is because im not going to be having millions of users! Im going to have...not tons! haha

So please someone just help me! Just imagine that i had my own dedicated server and now tell me how to do it.

haha

While on the subject how do you get your own dedicated server?

[Maccabee]

You buy it. My question still stands though, why?

Because i want my users to be able to have the email "example@wefuze.com"

Now can someone actually help me! I just want to know how.

Not to be told how and why i cant do it. haha

you can try looking for an open source email script which I highly doubt you will find, because big sites hire freelancing scriptors who develop it for the site. which I dont think you will have the money for (at your age for a freelancer) and if you did, you probably wouldnt even make enough money to make up for the developer. just saying

[Maccabee]

Just set up the emails yourself, seriously it takes about 5 seconds each one.

omg...you guys...but then the user wouldnt be able to choose their own password without me knowing it and i dont want to do that...know one has answered my question...

I am SURE that if you don't know how to make the login script, then you will never be able to make the whole email site.

But if you must.... Search google for "login script php tutorial"

no one answered your question because it cant be done with what your working with and no one on CB probably has that sort of knowledge except jusun
