Server and Port Settings for Basic Email Accounts

Server and Port Settings for Basic Email Accounts

Setting up an email client for the first time can be confusing, but with these key pieces of information, you shouldn't have any problem getting up and running.

The setup process is slightly different for each program, but typically you'll be asked to enter your email address and a password. Some email clients will then automatically detect the correct settings, and in other cases, you'll need to enter them manually. Either way, we recommend double-checking the information and sending a test message before you confirm the setup.
