Checking and Sending Mail

App Configuration

You can access your email using webmail, desktop mail clients, or mobile apps.

Here is what you need to know for webmail:

Webmail Address: https://{{hostname}}/mail
Username: Your whole email address.
Password: Your mail password.

On mobile devices you might need to install a “mail client” app. We recommend K-9 Mail. On a desktop you could try Mozilla Thunderbird.

Configure your device or desktop mail client as follows:

Server Name: {{hostname}}
Username: Your whole email address.
Password: Your mail password.
Protocol Port Options
IMAP 993 SSL
SMTP 587 STARTTLS
Exchange ActiveSync n/a Secure Connection

Depending on your mail program, you will use either IMAP & SMTP or Exchange ActiveSync. See this list of compatible devices for Exchange ActiveSync.

Notes

Mail-in-a-Box uses greylisting to cut down on spam. The first time you receive an email from a recipient, it may be delayed for ten minutes.
