There are various methods of connecting to mailboxes on our platform. We always recommend IMAP as that helps keep messages in sync between various devices and our webmail system. This is our recommended configuration for Thunderbird mail clients.

Incoming Server (“Account Settings” > “Server Settings”)

Server Name: imap.yourdomain.com

To view your IMAP hostname for mail setup, head to Manage Hosting and select the hosting package you need the IMAP hostname for.
In the Account Information section on the right-hand side, you’ll then see the Incoming Mail Server which will be your IMAP hostname.

Username: Your e-mail address

Port: 993

Connection security: SSL/TLS

Authentication method: 'Normal password'

Outgoing Server (SMTP)

Server Name: smtp.yourdomain.com

To view your SMTP hostname for mail setup, head to Manage Hosting and select the hosting package you need the SMTP hostname for.
In the Account Information section on the right-hand side, you’ll then see the Outgoing Mail Server which will be your SMTP hostname.

Port: 587

Connection Security: STARTTLS

Authentication method: 'Normal password'

Username: Your e-mail address
