Question "mail question", by Rebecca H.

I have created a mail account but cannot see how to get into it to check messages. I know there are some to see as I have sent them from another email account.

Answer, by Jeffrey J.

The simple answer is visit http://webmail.your-domain.tld/

The more complex answer is if you want to use a standard mail client to read your mail. Then you should simply be able to add a new account with the following parameters:

  • Incoming Mail Server: imap.your-domain.tld
  • User Name: your-mailbox-name@your-domain.tld
  • Password: <your mailbox password>

This assumes you want to use IMAP protocol; if prompted, choose IMAP instead of POP / POP3 or change the server to pop.your-domain.tld . As for SMTP (the path to send messages): theoretically this should work:

  • Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.your-domain.tld
  • User Name: your-mailbox-name@your-domain.tld
  • Password: <your mailbox password>
  • Use SSL: Yes

Officially, I've read both use SSL and don't use SSL but using it is better than not because it secures your mail by encrypting it.

If that's not sufficient to answer your question, please feel free to add more information.

Hope that helps and have a wonderful day, Ma'am!
