Configuring e-mail client

It can be convenient to manage your e-mail using an e-mail client, like Thunderbird, Apple Mail, Outlook on a computer. Or the K9 mail app, iOS mail app or the Gmail app on mobile devices. The table below shows the correct server settings which you will need to configure your e-mail client. These settings are applicable to any e-mail client installed on your computer or mobile phone.
