Finding your email provider is simple if you follow these clear steps:

Check your email address format first:

• Custom email addresses end with your domain ([email protected])
• Regular email addresses end with a provider name ([email protected])

For custom email addresses, check your Google Workspace status:

1. Open your Google Workspace panel
2. If you see email users listed - Google Workspace is your provider
3. If you see "Select a plan" - You don't have an account yet

Check your MX records:

For Squarespace domains:

• Go to domains dashboard > select domain > DNS > Custom Records
• Look for MX records
• The domain at the end of the Data record is your provider (e.g., google.com)

For third-party domains:

• Log into your domain host account
• Locate DNS settings
• Find MX records
• Note the domain name at the end

Still unsure? Try these steps:

• Review bank statements for email provider charges
• Contact your domain host for DNS record information
• Look in your email settings for provider information

Next steps after identifying your provider:

• Set up custom email with your Squarespace site
• Transfer email services if needed
• Maintain existing email when connecting domains
• Sign up for Google Workspace if desired

Remember: Your email provider is essential for domain transfers, email connections, and service migrations.
