multiple-domains-with-an-hosting
So your main account domain is http://mydomain.com
You also wish to use the same host for http://differentplace.org
The package says "unlimited domains", but how do you actually do that?
1. Use cpanel on your main account http://mydomain.com/cpanel
An Hosting -> Cpanel has a "addon domain" area
Type in the domain name and it will auto create a folder in your public_html folder.
(Note this automatically creates a subdomain too, e.g. differentplace.mydomain.com)
*Re-create every subdomain (once the main domain has been added as an "addon domain"),
so you'll see Subdomain: SUBDOMAIN differentplace.org (from the dropdown).
Document root (home)/public_html/differentplace.org/SUBDOMAIN
(I prefer the file structure to reflect the logical structure)
You can also use REDIRECTION to map differentplace.net to differentplace.org.

2. Upload files (e.g. index.htm) , you can use the cpanel File Manager (no ftp needed).
The public_html/differentplace.org folder will be "root" of the new domain.
3. point your differentplace.org Nameservers to midphase/anhosting...
(login to your domain registrar, e.g. godaddy, and manage domain -> Nameservers)
dns1.midphase.com
dns2.midphase.com
4. Test by using cmd.exe and ping differentplace.org to see if it is "resolving"
Final test by going to http://differentplace.org (do you see your index.htm?)

5. You can now use the http://mydomain.com/cpanel -> Email Accounts
to add email addresses to the new domain (now listed in the dropdown)
