These settings are only if you are using Digicom's "Hosted Email" service, not for email setup included for free with your website hosting.
Before setting up your email service, sign in to our webmail portal with your email address and password to make sure that you have the right password.
IMAP
Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) allows access to email on a shared server from multiple devices and locations. We recommend setting up webmail with IMAP. IMAP keeps the data on the server and synchronizes any changes to all clients.
We recommend using SSL for better login security.
Server hostname | Port | |
---|---|---|
Incoming (IMAP) | mail.hostedemail.com | SSL: 993 Non-SSL: 143 |
Outgoing (SMTP) | mail.hostedemail.com | SSL: 465 Non-SSL: 25 or 587 |
Username | name@example.com | |
Password | Password123 |
Note: For Apple's iOS, you will need to enter your email and password for the Outbound SMTP server. The device may say this is an optional configuration, but if not complete, the ability to send emails will not be functional.
POP
Post Office Protocol (POP) was initially designed as a way to access webmail by downloading your emails off of a mail server. The mail is stored locally on the specific device and client that is used to access webmail. Messages downloaded through POP are not able to be accessed from any other device or mail client. While POP mail is still supported, IMAP is the preferred method of setting up webmail.
Server hostname | Port | |
---|---|---|
Incoming (POP) | mail.hostedemail.com | SSL: 995 Non-SSL: 110 |
Outgoing (SMTP) | mail.hostedemail.com | SSL: 465 Non-SSL: 25 or 587 |
Username | name@example.com | |
Password | Password123 |
For mail servers, you can also choose to use imap.yourdomain.com or pop.yourdomain.com. However, SSL is not available via these servers.
