How to set up your Android mobile device with your domain email account using the IMAP protocol.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Checklist before you begin:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Ensure your domain email address has been created<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Make sure you know your password! *<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    *If you are just starting out and\/or you need to update your password from the default one issued, log into your Webmail first and change it. You can do this by visiting https:\/\/webmail.webmailhost.co.uk log in with your email address and default password, click settings gearwheel (far right) then ‘Password’ (left menu) update your password then Click ‘Save’ then log out. To reassure yourself it is correct, log back in and out using your new password.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Note: we prefer you to use the IMAP protocol over POP3 as IMAP syncs the messages on the mail server with multiple devices allowing you manage your domain email inbox from different locations. POP3 downloads the email directly onto the device you view it on and does not leave a copy on the server, therefore to read it again, you must use the same device. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
