If you set up a mail account manually, please use the following typical combinations of connection security and authentication method settings.

SMTP, IMAP, POP3:

  • SSL: STARTTLS
  • Authentication: Encrypted password
Other parameters that you may need when configuring your account manually:
  • Username. Your full email address. For example: johndoe@example.com.
  • Incoming server address (POP3/IMAP).   You're server name is in your welcome email or lookup here.
  • Outgoing server address.   You're server name is in your welcome email or lookup here.
  • Ports:  POP3 and IMAP Ports
We recommend using SSL/TLS since it encrypts the communication but if you receive errors you can try setting encryption to none and make sure to use the correct corresponding ports.
