I basically bought a HPS Complete VPS hosting account with EuroVPS and i am having problems setting up an email client as no web mail client comes by default with that plan.
I asked the eurovps support team 2-3 times on how to set up MS Outlook as my email client for my domain and they answered the same thing and it's not working.
I was wondering,if anyone of you have HSP Complete VPS hosting account with euroVPS and is there anyway to have webmail.
As per there documentation,i am using the following:
username: user
email:user@mydomain.com
smtp&pop3: mail.mydomain.com
smtp port: 25
pop port: 110
Selected to use authentication for outgoing server and checked the option to use same authentication method as incoming server,
Deselected SPA authentication scheme
I did everything as per the documentation they sent me but it's not working,

I'm trying to set up netscape as my mail client and set ingoing/outgoing server info to mail.mysite.com but there is always a message "connection to mail.mysite.com timed out." anytime i try to read a message.
If there's a moderator lurking that knows of a better spot for this inquiry, by all means point away.
We're an ad agency in the very vertical market of Recruitment Communications.
We've developed an employment site that we host on our Multi-site account.
They have today requested a quote on what it would take to create 100 email accounts for their various employees and administrators on this employment site.
I initially think we tell them in the proposal that having their employees utilize webmail for their accounts would be least problematic (read: least cost support) for them. It's still going to present a bit of manual labor on our part creating the names, but not too daunting.
The client has no experience on staff that would be able to undertake the task as outlined above, so naturally we're concerned that their needs are indeed met in the best possible way.
One of our company's goals for all of our clients is to, as much as is possible, Under-promise/Over-Deliver. But as we're not specifically a "provider" in the typical sense of what they're asking, I am also thinking that it might be better for both the client and ourselves to examine whether this is a feasible undertaking.
If we were to undertake this 'project', and this is something you've experienced or read about, might you care to offer guidance on what guidelines we should assert/set-up? Web-mail versus Pop? Pricing structure? Support fees? Etceteras, etceteras.
I have completed email set up on my server and have checked that email ports are open, but for some reason outlook keeps returning : "Outlook cannot find the server. Verify the server information is entered correctly in the Account Settings, and that you DNS settings in the Network pane of System Preferences are correct."
The odd thing is that outlook still picks up emails if I receive any, but keeps returning above error every minute.
In plesk9 my customers had the option to send daily usage reports by e-mail. Only certain clients like this option. Using plesk11 I cannot find this option if I log in as a client. Has this feature been removed? And if so, can the administrator enable this option only for 1 or 2 clients?
The Plesk panel indicates that the Spam folder can be retrieved using an email client. We are using Outlook 2013 and can not figure out a way to make this happen. We can see the Spam folder using Webmail, but the contents never shows up in Outlook...
I have a dedicated linux server that has 16 IP addresses... and one of those IP address is the main (or shared) IP of the server. So I can host a ton of websites on that one shared IP, and can optionally move individual accounts to one of the 15 other dedicated IP's if I so desire.
I put an account on it's own dedicated IP and it works fine. But I've noticed all my email being sent out is being filtered into people's spam folders... be it hotmail, gmail, yahoo, outlook, etc. My DNS is setup great as far as I can tell (DNSreport confirms) and I have SPF/domainkeys installed for this one account... so I shouldn't have problems authenticating my emails.
The only thing I can think of that would be causing problems for my mail being filtered as spam, is that since this account is on one of my dedicated IP's... that these mail providers (yahoo, etc) are looking at the incoming connection claiming to be the host, which is the main (or shared) IP of the server, and then looking at the MX record for the domain that the email address is, which points to that dedicated IP... and since they don't match... the email provider rejects the email cause the two IP's aren't matching.
Is this a valid assumption? And if so, is there anything I can do about it besides moving that one account back to the shared IP? For the life of me I can't figure this out.

Its been a while since I have posted on here, anyway heres my problem.
I have a cPanel server in my office which handles the email for 2 domains.
I've also got a reseller account on a helm server.
What I want to do is: if I have a problem with the office server (outage) all emails will be routed to the helm server then delivered back to the office server once available. So any incoming email wont be bounced/lost.
I have a VPS server now with 1and1.com (no wait times with tech support, and very friendly and helpful), only problem is... they haven't been able to help me resolve one of my problems.
My client has their domain registered with Network Solutions. I've already changed the DNS settings to point to my VPS where I've created the domain within Plesk. I can log into my FTP, change the site, yadda yadda yadda just like any other site. So everything works there!
Now, when I create an email account in Plesk I put in my user/pass etc... and create an email account... Great, awesome.
I go into Outlook and put in the email information, incoming/outgoing mail settings, user/pass, etc... and nothing works... It pops up and pretty much nothing happens.
What am I doing wrong for this to not work? Do I have to create a sub domain within Plesk for my domain? If so, I've already done that.
Must I change something over at Network Solutions to reflect the mail server? If so, I've added the MX records of mail.mydomain.com with prio of 10.
I have a couple questions maybe some of you can help me with -
I have a dedicated server and many hosted customers, I want to setup SSL for IMAP email and their cpanels.
Instead of purchasing individual SSL certificates for each domain. I was thinking to just use my hostanme (eg host.myhostname.net) and direct them to that as I have seen the option in WHM.
My question is can I use an SSL cert for email that will act as a "fleetwide" SSL cert?
For example instead of using mail.theirdomain.com could I just use mail.myhostname.com and would it give them SSL without warnings? Of course they would set their email client to mail.myhostname.com..
Is it safe or recommend to use your hostname? I read somewhere to never use your hostname as a domain.. so not sure.
We have a server where we host the sites and email services, and we are looking to buy a MS Exchange offsite email solution in order to have a reliable dedicated email service.
We are thinking on going with Rackspace MS Exchange solution: http://www.rackspace.com/email_hosting/exchange_hosting
So now its the hard part, i run my own dns / nameservers at this server so if i just change the mx at my Plesk panel if my webserver goes offline my email will also stop working, correct?
And at my registrar i only can change the name of the nameservers and the ips... and also add more nameservers (im using 2 ns).
So i need to figure it out how to config/setup the rackspace email in a way that when my webserver goes offline my email can keep up working.
The rackspace support team, said to me that they can host/run my dns on their servers in order to have my email working if my webserver goes offline.
So what do you think? Its a goo idea? The only idea?
high speed data between Sydney and New York and my VPS. Will be running automated trading software on their Windows VPS. Needs to have high uptime with very few reboots. This is better than running my applications from home.
IIS 7.0 - I host several websites. On one of them, the email is hosted externally and not through my exchange server. I have added an MX record to point to the mail server for this domain, but I still get an error when I attempt to send an email from within my local area network. There are no problems with emails generated outside my network, but for emails generated to this domain from within my network, I get the following error:
The e-mail account does not exist at the organization this message was sent to. Check the e-mail address, or contact the recipient directly to find out the correct address. <mail.<mydomain>.com #5.1.1>
Incidentally, the <mydomain> value does not match the domain for this email domain.
Instead it is the primary domain that I host.
I know that this must be a DNS issue, but I'm not sure how to correct.
the matter is kind of important and i dont want to discuss it in this thread, but i could not find a contact e-mail on the website. only phone numbers. so I know eurovps people are on this site, can one of them pm me and we can get in contact?
EuroVPS company received the payment for VPS server and does not give me the settings finding different reasons for that and does not want to refund my money. ORDER #EV20380S Date 28-Mar-2009
That was 11 April when I last received e-mail from them saying that Accounts department would consider possibility of refunding the money to my paypal account.
I don't want to pre-empt too much but has anyone here succesfully received a refund from EuroVPS?
I was a long time lurker here and see that they seem to get good reviews so I signed up a VPS there. Now I'm not sure it was the right decision. I've asked for a refund and its all gone silence for 2 weeks despite repeated and polite emails as well as phone calls.
Just experienced something totally cracy with EuroVPS which I feel I just have to share with the rest of you. I am currentlly looking for a serious VPS provider who isn't just the cheapest offer around but also offer good quality, support and network speed. Based on some comments here, I decided to give EuroVPS a try (among a few others).
In the begining it all went well, I did send them a few questions via email, and got replies quite fast. They wern't perhaps the most friendly replies you have ever seen making me feel they actually cared but rather quite formal, and sometimes they just refered to other people sending me information soon (which didn't happen without me asking again). But overall, it was still very good, which I also told them. Because of this, I decided to sign up for a free VPS trial, which was setup quite fast. So far so good.
Then it all started to go wrong. When connection with Remote Desktop I noticed that the speed I seemd to have wasn't quite as good as I had expected. This doesnt necessarily mean that they are doing anything wrong, but it made me send them a question to their sales address (I simply resonded to a previous mail). I received a reply saying that in order to get any support, I had to log in and use the HSP Complete panel. Perhaps not the nicest reply but still, I can live with that, and did as they said. I received a response that in order to give me any help, I had to send them my root login and password. I was suprised by this, especially as I was asking about network connectivity, and because you normaly wouldn't hand out your login credentials to just anyone. But, as it seeme the be the only way forward, and this was just a trial, I did it. Just a few seconds later, I received an automatic email which contained my text, which ment that the login credential I has just entered via HTTPS had now been sent over the Internet in plain text without encryption. Maybe I am to focused on security, but this handling to me raised some serious concern regarding how things like security were really setup at EuroVPS, and I emailed them asking for an explaination. And then all hell broke loose.
Within an hour, I received email that all my support tickets had been closed. I then received an email that my VPS had been stopped, and finaly one saying that it had been deleted (including any files I might have had there)! Just like that, no prior warning or anything, just bang, deleted. Maybe 30 minutes later, my phone rang and a very hostile and unfriendly guy said he was calling from Greece and that I had a VPS account with them that had just been terminated. Greece I thought, that can't be correct, I signed up for a vPS with a company in the Netherlands? But no, apperantly this is a greek company, just that they happen to host their stuff at EasyNet in the Netherlands.
He then continued to basically tell me to go to hell, and that they didn't want to do business with "people like me". Then he said that as a none paying customer (isn't that the point of a free trial?) I had no right to send questions to their technical support (remember, they were the ones who told me to do it). And then it went on like this, until I ended the call, as I didn't really see any point in being treated like dog **** just because I had made the misstake to evaluate a VPS with them and had sent them a question about network speed.
Even now, a few hours later, I am still upset by all this, but also glad that I hadn't yet signed up as a paying customer (which I was just about to do) before they showed their true face. But still, I am shocked by the way I was treated by EuroVPS and I wouldn't dream of ever doing business with them again, nor recommend them to anyone, despite the fact that the technical aspects of their offerings and their prices seem very good. Paying to be treated like shite...dont think so. I must say that I am also very suprised by this, as I before had gotten a very good impression of EuroVPS and this wasn't really what I expected, especially since it all started out very well.
I want to use Gmail to host my email. I have already confirmed my domain and now I can successfully send emails via my domain.
However in order to receive emails I need to add/update the MX records on my server. I did that (I think) but now, 24h later, the records don't seem to be updated yet.
For instance intodns.com still shows that there is only one MX record: [URL] ....
This is my setup where you can clearly see the MX records required by Google:
I changed the TTL to some minutes but still the changes don't seem to be propagated.
The screenshots are taken from "Website & Domains" -> my domain -> DNS - that should be the right thing to change, correct?
