How do I setup my cPanel email account?

Use the following settings to setup your cPanel email account in your email client or mobile device:

Secure SSL/TLS Settings (Recommended)

Username: your email address
Password: your email password
Incoming mail server: mail.smihosting.com.au (IMAP Port: 993 POP3 Port: 995)
Outgoing mail server: mail.smihosting.com.au (SMTP Port: 465)

IMAP, POP3 and SMTP require authentication.

Non-SSL Settings (NOT Recommended)

Username: your email address
Password: your email password
Incoming mail server: mail.smihosting.com.au (IMAP Port: 143 POP3 Port: 110)
Outgoing mail server: mail.smihosting.com.au (SMTP Port: 587)

IMAP, POP3 and SMTP require authentication.

Notes:

• IMAP email access coordinates between the server and your mail application. Messages that have been read/deleted/replied to will show up as such, both on the server and in the mail application.

• POP3 does not coordinate with the server. Messages marked as read/deleted/replied to in the mail application will not show up as such on the server. This means that future mail downloads with POP3 will show all messages as unread.

• Outgoing mail is sent using SMTP.

• We recommend using POP3 over SSL/TLS or IMAP over SSL/TLS since they provide increased security for your interactions with the remote mail server.
