SMTP Authentication Instructions

As part of our ongoing effort to combat e-mail SPAM, CresComm InterNET Services has phased out POP-before-SMTP Authentication in favor of SMTP Authentication due to its superior ability to track e-mails sent through our mail server and, in turn, filter out SPAM.

Therefore, you must ensure that the e-mail client (program) you are using is properly configured to use SMTP Authentication.

Enabling SMTP Authentication is extremely fast and straightforward. To assist with this process, CresComm.Net is providing step-by-step, easy-to-follow visual instructions for most major mail programs including Microsoft Outlook Express, Microsoft Outlook, Mozilla Thunderbird, OSX Mail and Novell Evolution. Please click on the appropriate link below for the e-mail program you use and follow the step-by-step instructions.

These links will be added soon. In the meantime you may contact our Technical Support Department

If the e-mail program that you use is not listed, please consult your e-mail program's 'Help' documentation for instructions to enable SMTP Authentication. Should you require further assistance, feel free to contact CresComm InterNET Service's 24/7 technical support department at 1-800-562-8064, and we will be happy to assist you. Be sure to have your username and password ready when asked.

NOTE: CresComm InterNET Services is providing this information as a courtesy to our clients as well as to other web hosts making this transition in an industry-wide effort to deal with unwanted electronic communications.

Sincerely,

CresComm InterNET Services
