Mail Server Settings
Use these settings to configure any email client — desktop, mobile or webmail — for your Overton.cloud mailbox.
Account Settings
Use these settings when configuring your email client:
Username
your-full-email@address.com
Use your complete email address.
Password
Your email account password
The password you set when creating the email account.
Server Hostname
mail.yourdomain.com
Use the same hostname for IMAP, POP3 and SMTP. Replace yourdomain.com with your own domain.
About your server hostname
mail.yourdomain.com needs to be set up as a custom hostname (a CNAME at your DNS provider pointing to your mail server). If it is not set up yet, you can use the server hostname shown in your Control Panel instead.
IMAP Settings
IMAP syncs your email across all devices — changes made on one device appear on all the others. This is recommended for most users.
| Connection type | Port | Encryption |
|---|---|---|
| Secure Recommended | 993 | SSL/TLS |
| Standard | 143 | STARTTLS |
POP3 Settings
POP3 downloads mail to a single device and, by default, removes it from the server. Use IMAP instead unless you specifically need POP3.
| Connection type | Port | Encryption |
|---|---|---|
| Secure Recommended | 995 | SSL/TLS |
| Standard | 110 | STARTTLS |
SMTP Settings
SMTP is used for sending outgoing email. Most email clients will auto-detect these settings.
| Connection type | Port | Encryption |
|---|---|---|
| Secure Recommended | 465 | SSL/TLS |
| Submission | 587 | STARTTLS |
| Alternative | 2525 | STARTTLS |
| Standard Not recommended | 25 | None |
If sending is blocked
If port 465 or 587 is blocked by your ISP, try port 2525 as an alternative.
