General email configuration
If your hosting is already managed on one of our new generation servers, the following data will apply to the setup of your email address in any email program:
With SSL/TLS encryption
Enable SSL
- You can enable encryption (SSL) both for the incoming and outgoing mail server connection in your email program.
Incoming emails (POP3/IMAP)
- Incoming mail server: lx#.hoststar.hosting (The first letter of the server name is a small L like Linux. Replace # with the effective server number of your hosting.).
- User name: The username is the email address you are setting up.
- Password: The password you selected for the email address in My Panel. If you do not know the password, refer to the instructions for resetting your email password.
- POP3 port: 995
- IMAP port: 993
Outgoing emails (SMTP)
- Outgoing mail server: lx#.hoststar.hosting (The first letter of the server name is a small L like Linux. Replace # with the effective server number of your hosting.).
- The option SMTP server requires authentication must be enabled. Use the same authentication details that you entered for the incoming mail server.
- Port: 465
Without SSL/TLS encryption
Incoming emails (POP3/IMAP)
- Incoming mail server: lx#.hoststar.hosting (The first letter of the server name is a small L like Linux. Replace # with the effective server number of your hosting).
