All email clients, such as Outlook, Android, etc, will need to be configured with the following settings in order to be used to check email hosted with 3Essentials.  Please consult the email client's documentation for instructions on how to properly set up your email account.

User Information:

Your Name: The name of the mail user
E-Mail Address: The email address of the mail user, (ie user@yourdomain.com)
 
Logon Information:
 
User Name: Enter the full email address (For incoming and outgoing mail server)
Password: Enter the users password (For incoming and outgoing mail server)
SSL/Encryption is NOT enabled.
 
Server Information:
 
Type:  POP3 or IMAP
POP3 Port: 110
IMAP Port: 143
SMTP Port: 25 or 2525
Certain ISP's block port 25, so use 2525 for the SMTP port. For dedicated servers, Port 2525 isn't added as an alternate port by default.  If you need us to open this port for you please submit a support ticket.
Incoming Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com ( change yourdomain.com to your domain )  
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com  ( change yourdomain.com to your domain )  

As a courtesy we have provided the following directions about how to add your account in these email clients, but we do not endorse or directly support third-party products, and we are not responisble for the functions or reliability of the email client.  The following directions are for adding a new account.  If the account already exists in your email client then simply edit the account settings to match those above.
