Email Client Setup
What is an Email Client App?
Email clients are applications on your computer or apps on your phone that retrieve emails and deliver them to your email inbox. Email clients can both send and receive your email messages. Microsoft Outlook and Mac Mail are two examples of email clients. This article includes setup guides for the most common email clients.

Troubleshooting Guide
Double-check your email client settings
Review your settings again for any possible typographical errors (especially the email password).
Are your mail records pointing to our MX Server?
Your domain DNS settings control which hosting provider handles your email services. Double-check your settings to make sure they point to our MX Server. If your domain is not registered with us, you may need to update your Nameservers or MX Records.
For information on changing your domain DNS settings, please view these articles:
