Mail Client Manual Settings

Learn how to set up your webmail on your mobile devices with ease by following this guide. You can use popular email apps such as Apple Mail and Outlook to configure your account.


NOTE: While Gmail is a popular email client, it is not supported for use with IMAP. As a result, it is not compatible and may not function properly. We recommend using a supported email client for the best experience.

Select your mail client below and follow the instructions.

Mail Client Manual Settings

To set up your webmail account on your mobile device, you will need to enter the following manual settings.

Secure SSL_TLS Settings (Recommended)

For incoming mail, use the IMAP protocol with the server name as "mail.yourdomain.com" and port number 993. For outgoing mail, use the SMTP protocol with the server name as "mail.yourdomain.com" and port number 465. Make sure to enable SSL encryption for both incoming and outgoing mail to ensure secure communication (in some cases it should be by default).

This will open your account and display all your email accounts, inboxes, drafts, and deleted messages (if you have multiple accounts). To access a specific email account, simply select the profile icon associated with it, and all your messages will be visible.
