Set Up Mail Clients Instead of using Webmail

When you access an email account through a desktop email application such as “MacOS® Mail.app®, Outlook, Thunderbird, etc., Or your Smart Phone,  the email application will require specific information about your email account.

NOTE: The use of the Online Candidate Mail Servers to send bulk or mass email is strictly prohibited.

This is for your protection and ours. Most users respect our usage policy and instead use dedicated email marketing systems to send out their bulk mail campaigns. Large amounts of email sent from an email address can cause that domain (and our server) to be blacklisted by ISPs. That means all your incoming and outgoing messages will be blocked. Unfortunately, there will always be a small number of users who, often unwittingly, abuse the system and may end up affecting the quality of service we can provide for all of our clients.

 

By placing limitations on Outbound usage, this not only protects our servers from being blacklisted, but also protects our client's email reputation.

 

We reserve the right to terminate email access for those who abuse their use. If you wish to send large amounts of email or perform email marketing, email marketing vendors are the way to go. They have agreements with ISPs that allow for better deliverability and enhanced tools. MailChip (free for up to 500 subscribers) and AWeber (free trial) are two good vendors.

 

  1. To Access these Mail Settings, you first need to log into your webmail account. Once logged in, click the Arrow in the upper left corner next to the name of your email account.


     
  2. Select Configure Mail Client from the dropdown Window


     
  3. In the top half are the available mail client auto-configuration scripts. Select the script for your mail client and operating system.


     
  4. If you do not see an auto-configuration script for your client, you can manually configure your mail client.
