Page 1 of 3 Need help setting up your email on your local computer? This gives you step-by-step instructions for common email clients for both PC's and MAC.
Basic information needed by most email clients. Type: POP3
Incoming Mail Server (POP3): mail.your.domain (replace your.domain with your domain name)
Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP):
- 1st choice) Use the SMTP server from your ISP
- Some ISP's won't allow you to use a third party SMTP server (such as AOL, Earthlink, Cox Cable, SBC Global and more) and you must use your local ISP's.
- Here is a list of common ISP SMTP servers
- 2nd choice) mail.your.domain (replace your.domain with your domain name)
- If you use our SMTP server instead of the your local ISP's - then you need to check the box that says "SMTP server requires authentication".
Account ID = Your full email address goes here
Password = xxxxxx All other information should be left as the system defaults.
Note: If you can receive your email, but can not send mail, the two most common problems are: - You have not checked the "SMTP server requires authentication" box.
- Your ISP will not allow the use of a third party SMTP server and you need to use theirs.
The following two pages show you how to setup your POP3 Mail in a typical email client program such as Microsoft Outlook on a PC or a MAC.
