# Creating Mailboxes in InboxKit: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

Creating Mailboxes in InboxKit: A Step-by-Step Tutorial

At InboxKit, you can create mailboxes on **Google Workspace**, **Microsoft 365**, and **Azure** directly from your dashboard — with automated setup, authentication, and activation included.

Follow this step-by-step guide to purchase and activate new mailboxes.

* * *

### **Step-by-Step Process**

#### **Step 1 — Go to the Mailboxes Section**

1.  Login to your InboxKit dashboard
    
2.  From the left-side menu, click **Mailboxes**
    
3.  Click **Buy Mailbox** on the top-right
    

📌 You will now be on the mailbox purchase screen.

* * *

#### **Step 2 — Choose Your Mailbox Platform**

InboxKit supports three platforms:

-   **Google Workspace**
    
-   **Microsoft 365**
    
-   **Azure**
    

Select your preferred platform by clicking the platform button.

📌 Platform capacity and sending volume differ, so pick the platform that matches your setup:

-   **Google Workspace & Microsoft 365** — up to **5 mailboxes per domain**
    
-   **Azure** — up to **100 mailboxes per domain**, with a recommended sending volume of **about 2 cold emails plus 5 warmup emails per mailbox per day (7 total)**. For example, 50 mailboxes on one domain supports about 350 emails per day. These are recommended volumes, not hard caps.

#### **Step 3 — Enter Mailbox Details**

Fill in the required fields for each mailbox:
