IncrediMail XE

IncrediMail XE is one of many POP3/IMAP email clients available for the Windows OS. The basic setup instruction to work with email here are listed for you to use this email client.

The first time you run the program, you will be presented with the "Welcome to IncrediMail" setup tool, which contains several screens.

Screen 1: Personal Information

Please help us to better serve you by filling in the details below:
Gender: Gender
Age: Age range
Country: Country you reside in

Note: Uncheck the "I wish to receive email updates about new IncrediMail features and special offers" if you wish.

Click Next

Screen 2: Account Settings

Please select: Let me configure settings myself
Click Next

Screen 3: Name and email address

Your Name is: Your name
Your email address: Your email address
Click Next

Screen 4: Online search for your server settings

This screen will probably only appear for a split second or two, and will attempt to determine your email server settings, using the email address you've provided. It doesn't seem to actually find them though, so you'll need to fill them in on the next screen.

Screen 5: Incoming and Outgoing mail servers

Incoming mail server: yoursite.com
Outgoing mail server: yoursite.com
Click Next

Screen 6: User name and password

Username: Email Username
Password: Email Password
Click Finish

 

Server Authentication

From the Tools menu, choose Accounts... This will open the Mail Accounts box. Click Properties, which will open the yoursite.com Properties window.
Click the Servers tab, and place a checkmark next to "My server requires authentication".
Note: The default setting for server authentication is "use same settings as my incoming mail server". Therefore, you will not need to change anything in the settings for server authentication.

Leaving a Copy on the Server

This is also on the advanced tab, at the bottom in the Delivery section. Place a checkmark next to "Leave a copy of messages on server"

Congratulations, you've now setup IncrediMail XE to use your email account. Repeat the above steps to setup further email accounts.


*After completing these steps you should be able to send and receive email via this account. If you can't send emails that means your ISP is most likely blocking your Outgoing Mail server port 25 (default). You can change that port to 26 if you have Linux hosting with us or to port 465 if you have Windows hosting with us.
