At Rapidnet, we understand the importance of seamless email communication. Here's how you can send emails while connected to our network:
For 3rd Party Mail Services
If you use 3rd party mail services like Gmail, or have POP3 or IMAP mail hosted elsewhere, you'll need to configure your email client accordingly. Contact your mail provider for specific details on configuring SMTP Authentication. Additionally, due to the prevalence of SPAM, we recommend using SMTPS or Submission for sending emails. These protocols typically use port 465 for SMTPS and port 587 for Submission.
Email Hosting with Rapidnet
For those in need of personalised email or business email hosting, we offer email-only hosting services. We can provide you with the necessary mail server details to configure your email client. However, please note that we are unable to assist with 3rd party mail services that we do not control.
SMTP Authentication and Port Usage
When sending emails via our network, ensure that your email client is configured to use SMTP Authentication. This helps prevent unauthorised access to our network resources. Additionally, use SMTPS or Submission protocols for enhanced security. The recommended ports for SMTPS and Submission are port 465 and port 587, respectively.
