If you have email issues with accounts hosted on our servers, you can troubleshoot these issues by following the steps below.
Troubleshooting Email Issues
Check which web hosting platform you are using
We offer cPanel and eXtend webhosting. The troubleshooting steps will depend on which platform you use.
Check you can access your email account via Webmail.
The most common cause of email issues is username & password issues. Once you have determined which system you are using, you can quickly verify these details by logging into your email account via the webmail interface. If you are unable to login via Webmail, the issue is most likely due to your password.
If you update your password, you will need to update the password within your desktop and mobile devices too
If your password is incorrect, reset it to something you know
Check Your Client Settings
If you can access via Webmail but your Desktop or phone client is unable to send or receive emails, check you client settings.
Common problems include incorrect hostname or incorrect port number. You should make sure your username and password are correct too - if in doubt, change them using the steps above.
Check your inbox isn't full
If your inbox is full, you may not be able to send or receive emails
