Email Trouble Shooting to get your mail working Print

  • 287

Having issues with your email? Here’s how to resolve common problems on your WhoGoHost account:

  1. Verify Your Credentials

  • Ensure your username and password are entered in lowercase.

  • Confirm that the email address exists in your WhoGoHost cPanel.

  • Always use the full email address as your username, for example: username@yourdomain.com.

Adjust Server Settings

  • If login fails, replace mail.yourdomain.com with the IP address from your welcome email in both incoming and outgoing server fields.

Can Receive But Cannot Send?

  • Some internet providers block outgoing mail servers to reduce spam. If this is the case:

    • Use your ISP’s outgoing mail server (usually mail.yourisp.com).

    • If unsure, contact your ISP for the correct SMTP server.

  • WhoGoHost also provides Exim via port 26 as an alternative for sending emails.

Can Send But Cannot Receive?

  • Your domain or email account may have reached its disk space limit. Free up space or upgrade your plan to resume receiving emails.

“Enter Username and Password” Prompts

  • WhoGoHost limits email checks to 60 per hour. Exceeding this temporarily locks you out.

  • Reduce auto-check frequency in your email client (Tools > Options > General > Check for new messages every XX minutes) or disable automatic checking on extra devices.

Following these steps should restore full email functionality. For persistent issues, contact WhoGoHost support for assistance.
