POP server (optional): mail.b.hostedemail.com, port 995, SSL/TLS. If it will not connect, use IMAP.
If it will not connect
- Check that you typed the whole address, your full email address, as the username. The part before the @ on its own does not work.
- Type the password again. It is case sensitive.
- A message that says "Temporary authentication failure" usually means the mailbox is not set up yet. Wait a little and try again, and ask support if it keeps happening.
- If the POP settings will not connect, use the IMAP settings above.
- If it still will not connect, ask support and tell them which app you are using.
