Denver Web Host's web-based email (webmail) allows you to retrieve your POP email acount from any Internet connected computer without the use of additional software. This service is just like using HotMail, Yahoo Mail or any of the other web based email providers on the Internet.
How do I do it?
First and foremost, you must setup a POP email account for the address you wish to be able to retrieve email for:
For an overview of how to setup a POP email account, click here.
For more information on POP accounts in general, click here.
Okay, my POP account is setup - How do I get my mail?
Using any Internet connected computer and a web browser, go to:
http://www.yourdomain.com/webmail
A box pops up asking you to enter a user name and password. This is the information you specified when you setup the POP mailbox. Be sure to use the format user@yourdomain.com for the user name.
Once you have logged in, your are presented with a choice of three webmail programs we have available for you to use:
NeoMail - A pretty basic webmail program but very easy to use.
Horde - The most advanced of the options. This also has a web-based calendar, task list and notepad to use.
SquirrelMail - The most basic but popular due to its simplicity.
Click on your chosen program and you will be taken to your email. Note that if this is the first time you are using the webmail, you may be prompted to enter your name and some other information. This is required so that the mail program knows how to address your outgoing mail with your name and such.
Please note: Any email stored on the server counts toward your total disk space usage that you are allowed. As such, it is not recommended that you store large attachments and large quantities of email in the webmail. You should also get in the habit of emptying the "trash" and deleting old "sent items."
