Trouble Shooting Email Establishment
Incase you do get an error message when establishing your new email account, the follow information is provided to help diagnose and overcome the issue.
- Mail states it can't "Verify Certificate": This occurs because you are setup to use a SSL connection, but perhaps you are using a shared certificate and that is confusing your email client. If given the option accept the unverified certificate, otherwise check to make sure the Incoming and Outgoing Mail Servers are set to your access domain.
