Q: How do I configure my EMail client to work with DirecPath EMail?

· If you choose to utilize a POP3 or IMAP Email client, you must first activiate POP3 or IMAP via the webmail interface by following this process:

Log into WebMail at http://mail.direcpath.tv

Click Settings at the top of any mail page.
Click Forwarding and POP/IMAP in the orange Mail Settings box.
Select Enable POP for all mail or Enable POP for mail that arrives from now on.
Select Enable IMAP if you choose to use this (stores messages on server)
Click Save Changes

After activating POP3 and or IMAP functionality, you must now configure your Email client. General EMail client configuration Settings are as follows:
