Most modern devices and email applications support automatic configuration, which is the quickest and easiest option for setting up your email account.
Email can typically be accessed using:
- Webmail
- Apple Mail
- Microsoft Outlook
- Thunderbird
- iPhone / iPad
- Android devices
For most users we recommend using IMAP, which keeps your email synchronised across multiple devices including phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers.
POP3 is generally only recommended where email needs to be stored locally on a single device.
Use the following settings if your email application does not automatically detect the account configuration.
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Username | info@yourwebsitename.co.uk |
| Password | Your email account password |
| Incoming Mail Server | mail.yourwebsitename.co.uk |
| IMAP Port (Recommended) | 993 |
| POP3 Port | 995 |
| Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP) | mail.yourwebsitename.co.uk |
| SMTP Port | 465 |
| Authentication | Required for IMAP, POP3, and SMTP |
| Encryption | SSL/TLS |
