Email client setup
Settings for your email client
If you are an Abiliba Network Services customer, you'll need to set up your email client to access our mail server. Note that you cannot use these settings if you are not an Abiliba customer!
Getting email with IMAP
| Mail server | mail.abiliba.net |
| Login | This is your user-id and password. User ID: Your full email account (you@your.domain) Password: The password assigned by your mail admin |
| Authentication | If your email program lets you set the authentication style, choose "CRAM-MD5" or "Login" (CRAM-MD5 is preferred). |
| Security | If your email program offers a setting for "SSL" or "secure connection" you can select the option. Using a secure connection encrypts your email so that it can't be snooped while it's in transit. The secure connection also protects your login. |
Getting email with POP3

| Login | This is your user-id and password. User ID: Your full email account (you@your.domain) Password: The password assigned by your mail admin |
