Question

I just recently returned to using surpass after a year, but I thought your other e-mail users could type in mail.domain.com then log in and pick their appropriate program. Now, it won't work... try it yourself and see the evil teal and orange page I get.

mail.brokenaria.com

Is there a setting I need to change or can it no longer be done? I'm good at the design end, not the technical end. Thanks so much!

I can log in with my main account but not any other account using that. It's still claiming the mail.brokenaria.com is not configured.

**frustrated**

And I can't set up Outlook or Thunderbird until it is.

Thanks though, Ozzy.

In case you haven't tried this: with your main account all you need is the user name but with any other email addresses, you need the full email address: userdomainname.com. You cannot leave out the domain.

EDIT: The same thing applies to Outlook/Thunderbird/Etc.

I think that's the way I have to do it, is with the + symbol.

It's still not working. When I triend sending mail out of Thunderbird using smtp.brokenaria.com it said the site is down or not configured correctly. Could it actually not be configured or am I seriously screwing up somewhere? If it is screwed up who do you think would be best to call or e-mail? Now, the webmail is working if I log in at www.brokenaria.com/webmail using the addresses.

your smtp address should be mail.brokenaria.com, not smtp.brokenaria.com. your pop address would be the same. this should all be in your welcome email.

Exactly. And if that doesn't work, then it could be your ISP blocks SMTP and you have to use their SMTP server (or an alternate port if Surpass has enabled it on your server).
