If Verrotech host your domain then you’ll need the settings below to connect your mail client to your account. These settings should work with pretty much any mail client – if not get in touch and we can do a specific guide for yours.
Please note as of July 2016: Verrotech ask all our customers to use secure (SSL) connections. Old configurations will continue to work only for the time being!
For these to work you need your EMAILUSERNAME and EMAILPASSWORD (these are specific for each email address you have and often in the form domain-name e.g. hello@example.com would probably be example-hello).
Note depending on your mail client not all the settings below should be asked for – but all clients will work with Verrotech, just fill in what you can and test it.
Incoming Settings
- Type of server: IMAP (we strongly recommend you use IMAP, but we also support POP)
- Server: mail.verrotech.com
- Use SSL to connect (this may be called use secure connection or similar, and ensures your connection is safe and encrypted)
- Port: 993 (for IMAP secure this is 993, if you’re using secure POP it’s 995. If you are not using SSL connections [unsecure and not recommended!] the ports are 143 for IMAP and 110 for POP)
- Username: EMAILUSERNAME
- Password: EMAILPASSWORD
Outgoing Settings
Outgoing is a standard called SMTP (so no need to worry which one to choose!)
- Server: mail.verrotech.com
- Use authentication: yes (note you may be able to check “use the same credentials as incoming server” here to avoid putting the username and password in twice)
- Use SSL to connect (this may be called use secure connection or similar)
- Port: 465 (if you’re not using SSL this would be 587, but please use SSL!)
- Username: EMAILUSERNAME
- Password: EMAILPASSWORD
