Set up email
Your email can only receive and send emails if you have entered the correct information in the email settings. Without the correct information, it is difficult to use your email. That is why we are happy to provide you with the correct information for setting up your email.
Which email program you use matters
Unfortunately, all email programs require different data when it comes to email settings. Each program requires its own specific data to receive and send emails. Do you use Mozilla Thunderbird, Apple Mail or Microsoft Outlook? Then we have a handy
step-by-step plan to get your email working again.
Incoming mail server settings
You are using POP3 or IMAP. Using this can affect the data you enter for your email settings. When you use POP3, the email is usually retrieved from your mailbox and placed on the device on which you are currently reading the email. In the case of IMAP, emails remain on the server, so that they can be read on multiple devices. When you use this type of account, it is advisable to periodically clean up your email. These emails are part of the disk space that you have available on your hosting package. Also consider regularly emptying your trash.
The server settings for your email are:
Server type: POP3 (port 110) or IMAP (Port 143)
Server address: Mail.yourdomainname.ext
Outgoing mail server settings
The server settings for outgoing mail differ per provider. Below we give an overview of the most popular providers and their server settings.
