Here are the recommended basic client settings you may need to set up your e-mail . Different clients use different methods for Accepting certificates, but most will either ask to to Accept the certificate, or give to the option to accept all certificates.

INCOMING MAIL(IMAP):

We highly recommend the use of IMAP as this allows all of your mail clients (webmail, desktop, mobile etc.) to keep online folders in Sync.

Setting	Value
Type:	IMAP
Server:	mail.enlightenhosting.com
Username:	Your full email address, including the @domainname part
Password:	Your mail address password
Security type:	SSL or SSL/TLS
	Choose Accept certificate
Port:	993

OUTGOING MAIL:

Setting	Value
Type:	SMTP
Server:	mail.enlightenhosting.com
Username:	Your full email address, including the @domainname part
Password:	Your mail address password
Security type:	SSL
	Choose Accept certificate
Port:	465

OUTGOING MAIL (alternate)

Note that pot 465 with SSL is better for outbound because some ISPs / Internet cafes / hotels etc. block port 25. You may also try port 25 with TLS, if port 465 fails. as below.

Setting	Value
Type:	SMTP
Server:	mail.enlightenhosting.com
Username:	Your full email address, including the @domainname part

When using port 25, Be sure that your mail client supports STARTTLS or you may be accidentally sending your password in clear text.

Note that we recommend that you use IMAP, especially if you use multiple devices to access your mail.
