In our ever ongoing quest to provide the best email experience to all of our clients we have been updating our e-mail service and adding great new features including better control over your junk e-mail via our web based interface. As part of this transition there may be some technical changes required.

Many ISPs such as MSN, COX, and SHAW block port 25 to help prevent viruses and spam, because of this we are forced to use a different port. We have chosen port 587 as our replacement port for reasons far to technical to get into.

To make the required changes simply choose your e-mail client of choice and follow the simple instructions.
