Mail in / out server
29. September 2022
Now you can use the following mail in/out servers instead of “sr00.firestorm.ch”:
– SMTP: smtp.firestorm.ch (465 / SSL)
– IMAP: imap.firestorm.ch (993 / SSL)
– POP3: pop3.firestorm.ch (995 / SSL)
This only works if the domain of the mail address is configured correctly (MX & *.domain.tld A entry) and points to a hosting / server with us.
The instructions have already been adapted accordingly: https://www.firestorm.ch/en/kb/setting-up-outlook/
