The following are the most common issues users run into: 1. Are you using the correct easyMail address and password combination? You can verify this by logging into your webmail account via webmail.easymail.ca or messages.easymail.ca: 2. Are you using the correct easyMail server information? Inbound Server Information IMAP ***OR*** POP Outbound Server Information Outbound Mail Server (SMTP): mailout.easymail.ca 3. Are you using an SSL port (993 for IMAP or 995 for POP) for your Inbound server? If so, do you have the SSL enabled? 4. Are you using an SSL port (465) for your Outbound SMTP server? If so, do you have the SSL enabled? NOTE: Users will have email issues if an SSL port is specified but the SSL option isn’t selected. The same applies if a non SSL port is specified, but the SSL option is selected. This is why you want to make sure you have the correct settings.
