Email Client Configuration – Email Over SSL

When setting up your email client to send and receive email over SSL the following ports will need to be used:

POP: 995
IMAP: 993
SMTP: 465

If you have any trouble you will want to set them back to the default ports:

POP: 110
IMAP: 143
SMTP: 587

You may receive a domain mismatch error in your mail client, and in that case you can change your incoming and/or outgoing server to match the secure server name of the machine your site is hosted on, for example,

secure##.inmotionhosting.com

Please refer to your Technical details in AMP for your server information. Keep in mind you should only use the secure server name over SSL!
