E-mail
Troubleshooting
Before you begin
Make sure your user name and password is all lowercase.
Make sure you have created the email address in your control panel.
Change the user name to the full email address. Example: username@domainname.com
Still not working?
Change your incoming and outgoing mail servers from mail.yourdomain.com
to the ip address listed in your welcome email.
Are you able to receive emails but not send? If you can receive
mail but aren't able to send this means one thing.....Your internet
provider is blocking you from using anyone's outgoing mail servers
but their own.
Many major ISP's are blocking outgoing emails. The reason they do
this is to prevent you from using their internet connection for
spamming purposes. You will still be able to send emails, but only
by using your ISP'S outgoing mail server.
Every ISP's outgoing mail address is different, but for the most
part they will be mail.yourispname.com For example, if you had hosting
with AOL.com, their outgoing mail server would look like this: mail.aol.com
If mail.yourisp.com does not work and you are still unable to send
emails, you will need to call your internet service provider to
find out what their outgoing mail server is.
We also have exim running on port 26 for this very reason. A possible
work around is to change your outgoing mail to port 26 |
