There are three ways to check email on most devices: IMAP, POP, and the webmail. For a list of pros and cons between POP and IMAP, please google "POP vs IMAP".
Email programs vary quite a bit in how the email account setup wizard works, and most of the time they aren't very good at auto-detecting mail settings for independent providers like Giant Communications. Below is a list of the settings required to set up your email account.
IMAP (recommended)
| Incoming Mail (IMAP) Server | mail.giantcomm.net Requires SSL: Yes Security Type: SSL/TLS Port: 993 |
| Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server | mail.giantcomm.net Requires SSL: Yes Security type: SSL/TLS Port: 465 OR Security type: STARTTLS Port: 587 |
| Display Name | Your name |
| Username, account name, email address | Your full email address |
| Password | Your giantcomm.net email password |
POP3
| Incoming Mail (POP3) Server | mail.giantcomm.net Requires SSL: Yes Security Type: SSL/TLS Port: 995 |
| Outgoing Mail (SMTP) Server | mail.giantcomm.net Requires SSL: Yes Security type: SSL/TLS Port: 465 OR Security type: STARTTLS Port: 587 |
