The hosting service normally comes with an email server on the webserver. You can setup various email accounts for your business and personal correspondence.
Your default administrator email account is postmaster@yourdomain.com.
You can setup an email client (eg. Microsoft Outlook, Outlook Express, Eudora, Netscape Mail, etc.) to retrieve your email.
After the user email accounts are setup, you may need to assist other users on the setting up of email clients.
Our email hosting supports POP3, IMAP and HTTPMAIL protocol.
POP3 (Post Office Protocol) Mail is the most common mail access protocol that allows your email client to download your email messages to your computer so that you can read them later without being connected to the Internet. This feature is especially important if your connection time is chargeable.
POP3 mail works best for single computer offline access where messages are downloaded and then deleted from the mail server. This effectively ties the user to one computer for message storage and manipulation.
POP3 Mail settings in a glance:
| SETTINGS | VALUE |
|---|
| Mail Server Type: | POP3 |
| Incoming mail (POP3) server: | mail.yourdomain.com |
| Outgoing mail (SMTP) server: | mail.yourdomain.com |
| Login: | <username>@yourdomain.com |
| Password: | <User Password> |
| Server Authentication: | Yes |
Note that server authentication is required for sending out emails. This is to prevent spammers from using your email server for spamming.
