Configure email clients outlook, thunderbird etc

If you decide to use an email client, such as Microsoft Outlook Express, MS Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird and Eudora, here are the settings you need:

Incoming mail server (POP3/IMAP server): mail.yourdomain.com

Outgoing mail server (SMTP server): mail.yourdomain.com Or Host: mail.yourdomain.com

Username: the full e-mail address. Example: you@yourdomain.com instead of you.

Password: Assigned in cPanel -> Email -> Manage/Add/Remove Accounts.

SMTP authentication must be enabled for the login to be successful.*

Some of our user accounts may have different mail setups in place, if the above gives you errors.  Try this:

Keep all settings same as above, but change the SMTP setting as follows:

Outgoing mail server (SMTP server): mail.yourISP.com Or Host: mail.yourISP.com (Where yourISP.com is the outgoing mail server your Internet provider provides. 

Email Ports:

• The POP3 port for inbound emails is 110 (995 if you want to use secured POP3)
• And the IMAP port for inbound emails is 143 (993 if you want to use secured IMAP)
• The SMTP port for outbound emails is 25 or 2525 (465 if you want to use secured SMTP)
