What email server settings should I use?

Eyesurf doesn't provide email addresses, so there are no Eyesurf mail servers — if an older guide told you to enter mail.eyesurf.net, that information is out of date. Your server settings come from your email provider (Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, etc.), and in most apps you won't need them at all.

The easy way: no settings

In any modern mail app, choose your provider by name (Google / Outlook.com / Yahoo) when adding the account and sign in — the app configures all servers and ports automatically. You only see server questions if you choose the "Other" account type, and you almost never should.

If an app really does ask for settings

Use your provider's official settings page:

• Gmail: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/7126229
• Outlook / Hotmail: https://support.microsoft.com — search "POP, IMAP, and SMTP settings for Outlook.com"
• Yahoo: https://help.yahoo.com — search "IMAP server settings"

Don't have an email address yet?

Free accounts from Gmail, Outlook, or Yahoo take about five minutes to create — see https://help.eyesurf.net/en/article/can-i-get-an-email-address-from-eyesurf-1qvwtu1/, and we're happy to help you get set up.
