Set Up Email in Outlook, Thunderbird and Apple Mail

You'll need your full email address, its password, and the server name from the Mail app setup tab (usually mail.cdnshark.com). Settings in short: IMAP 993 SSL/TLS; SMTP 465 SSL/TLS or 587 STARTTLS; username = full email address. Details: Mail App Settings (IMAP and SMTP).

Thunderbird

  1. Account Settings → Account Actions → Add Mail Account.
  2. Enter your name, email address and password, then click Configure manually.
  3. Incoming: IMAP, the server name, port 993, SSL/TLS, normal password, username = full email address.
  4. Outgoing: SMTP, the server name, port 465 SSL/TLS (or 587 STARTTLS), normal password, same username.
  5. Click Re-test, then Done.

Outlook (Windows and Mac)

  1. File → Add Account (Windows) or Settings → Accounts → + (Mac). Enter your email address.
  2. Choose Advanced options → Let me set up my account manually, then IMAP.
