The easiest option to start: Webmail.
If you don't have time or don't feel like linking the email address associated with your new website, you can always log in using the following link:
https://monkeywebmail.nl. The username is your full email address and the password is self-explanatory; This is the password you were sent.
Linking email to your iPhone.
Step 1
On your iPhone, go to "settings." Then click on "Mail". After this, a new screen will open, where it says "Accounts". Click on it. Then scroll down and click on "New account" and then on "Other". Now click on "Add mail account".
Step 2
Now enter your own name, the email address you want to link and the corresponding password. When you have done that, click "Next". At the top of the screen, select IMAP. Now there are two headings on this page called "Server incoming mail" and "Server outgoing mail."
Under "Server incoming mail" enter the following information:
- Host name is mail.domainname.com
- Username is your email address
- Password is the corresponding password.
For "Server outgoing mail," enter exactly the same information. You may have to fill in a Port somewhere. For the "incoming mail" you enter 995, and for the outgoing mail 465. Should you come across the option for using or not using SSL, make sure you tick this option. With this you choose for a secure connection!
It worked!!! Your email address is linked to your iPhone. From now on you can send and receive emails on your iPhone using your own email address.
Link email to your Android device
Step 1
Navigate to your phone's settings and look for "Accounts". Since not all Android phones are exactly the same, it may be called slightly different on your phone. For example, on your phone it may be called "Accounts and Backups" or it may be hidden under another menu item. Once you find this menu, click on it. Now you'll see a list of all the different types of accounts. Scroll all the way down and click on Add Account.
Step 2
In the menu you now see, click on "Email" and then "Other". Then you can enter the email address you want to link, along with the password that goes with it. Make sure you enter the correct password. Then click on "Login". In the screen that opens next, click on IMAP account.
Step 3
Now it's time to fill in some details. As we explained earlier, not all Android devices are the same. So below is a list of the data you need to fill in, but maybe not quite in the right order.
- SMTP server: mail.domainname.com
- IMAP server: mail.domeinnaam.nl
- Email address: [email protected]
- Username: [email protected]
- Password: your password
- Security type: SSL
- Port incoming server: 993
- Port outgoing server: 465
Fill in these details and press login.
You are now done. Your email address is linked to your Android device! From now on you can send and receive emails on your Android device using your own email address.
