-
Click on the "Check Email" next to the selected email account.
Accessing Webmail Directly
Webmail allows you to access your email account through any browser or mobile device.
To log in to Webmail, you can use either of the following methods:
Interface | Service subdomain | Secure port | *Non-secure port |
---|---|---|---|
Webmail |
https://webmail.example.com |
https://example.com:2096 |

When the page opens, you will see the email account in Webmail.
We highly recommend not accessing your Webmail with a non-secure (no HTTPS) port.
