Email configuration settings for people using my server.
Probably the best thing to do is visit the webmail page, log in, and look for a section near the bottom of the page to automatically set a profile on your device. This will have all your correct settings. All you will need is your password. If the webmail page let you in, then you know it. If it doesn’t, then contact me, and I can reset it for you. Once you have the correct password, the webmail screen will also let you change it if you need.
Webmail page: email.heltsley.net
