Question: Do you offer secure access to email with your hosting packages? ie: secure pop3, smtp, and IMAP access? Answer: Yes. FutureQuest offers the choice between traditional email access methods or secure email access methods. There are no extra fees for either type of email access. Although FutureQuest cannot directly support the configuration of third party software, there are some configuration guidelines for using the secure protocols available within the following forum thread: http://www.FutureQuest.net/forums/showthread.php?t=20079 POP3 over SSL (or POP3S) uses port 995 SMTP over SSL (or SMTPS) uses port 465 IMAP over SSL (or IMAPS) uses port 993 See the above link for more configuration information and a note about possible certificate warnings. NOTE: The traditional email services are available on their usual ports: standard POP3 port 110, standard IMAP port 143, and standard SMTP ports 25/1025/587. Secure QuestMail access is also available: http://service.FutureQuest.net/kba52 In addition, FutureQuest supports the use of SSH Port Forwarding. If you run Windows and are interested in SSH Port Forwarding, you may wish to check out SecureCRT from VanDyke Software: http://www.VanDyke.com Within its help files, you will find detailed information on setting up SSH Port Forwarding. If you run Linux, see the man pages for 'ssh'. You may also wish to reference some other FAQs listed under: Secure Email | |
