The IMAP email box will allow you to synchronise emails across multiple devices including the server.
The incoming mail server is the address which your email application uses to obtain your emails.
Server address: afmws.co.uk
User name: your full email address e.g. my.name@mydomain.com
Password: the password for your email box
Encryption type: SSL
Port number: 993
The outgoing mail server is the address which your email application uses to send emails. Your application will need to provide a login for a legitimate email box in order to send emails via the server.
Server address: afmws.co.uk
User name: your full email address e.g. my.name@mydomain.com
Password: the password for your email box

Incoming mail server address incorrect: The incoming mail server should be set to is set to afmws.co.uk and not mail.afmws.co.uk.
Outgoing mail server address incorrect: The outgoing mail server should be set to is set to afmws.co.uk and not smtp.afmws.co.uk.
Outgoing mail server requires authentification: Mail can only be sent from a valid email box. Therefore all outgoing email must be authentificated using the same login settings as the incoming mail server. This prevents the email boxes being used maliciously by third parties to send SPAM.
