Email through the hosting
With people working remotely over the past few months I have had a few enquiries about how to do things. Generally when people join I provide a set of guides. In case you have lost yours I have included them all here. Just follow the links below to download your copies.
Note these are only valid for people who are using email provided through the website hosting. Some of you are on Office 365 and Outlook.com; these guides are not for you.
If you are exclusively using Gmail, Hotmail or Yahoo for your main communications (you shouldn’t really!), then these guides are not for you either.
Everyone else, this is how to set up various clients.
A recent change is most accounts should now work with mail.yourdomainname.co.uk for the SMTP and IMAP servers. You substitute yourdomainname.co.uk with; your domain name! So for me in this hosting it would be mail.wingrove-services.co.uk for both the SMTP and IMAP servers.
The guides are as follows:
