What is the required information to set up email clients?

In some cases your email client software or device may autoconfigure itself if you provide your email address and password.

To manually configure a POP3 or IMAP e-mail client you will need the following information:

Manual Settings

You can use the settings below to manually configure your mail client software or device to connect to the iComEx mail server:

  • IMAP Port: 993
  • POP3 Port: 995
Outgoing Server: mail.example.com*
  • SMTP Port: 465
Password Authentication is required for IMAP, POP3, and SMTP. Do not use Secure Password Authentication (SPA), a proprietary Microsoft protocol.
*Replace example.com with your domain name.

Because of the wide array of email client software and platforms, iComEx does not provide specific support for any particular software, operating system or device type. Please consult with your software or device vendor for specific support requirements.

Notes:

  • IMAP email access coordinates between the server and your mail application. Messages that you have read, deleted, or replied to will show up as such, both on the server and in the mail application.
  • POP3 does not coordinate with the server. Messages that the mail application marks as read, deleted, or replied to will not show up as such on the server. This means that future mail downloads with POP3 will show all messages as unread.
  • The system uses SMTP to send outgoing mail.
  • We recommend that you use POP3 over SSL/TLS or IMAP over SSL/TLS because they provide increased security for your interactions with the remote mail server.

iComEx has clients in states across our nation such as Colorado, Louisiana, Oregon, and many others.
