IT allows you to access your email
accounts via a web browser. We refer to
this feature simply as Web Mail.
Using Web Mail:
Hoast.Com
offers two web mail interfaces:
SquirrelMail
and Horde. To access your email from a
web browser, simply:
- point your browser
to http://www.yourdomain.com/webmail

One Step Access to Web Mail:
There's a simple work around if you know
which program you want to use. Set up a
subdomain to point directly to the email
login page you want. Choose from your
options below, and then in cPanel create a
a subdomain (such as webmail.yoursite.com)
to point to the preferred email interface.
Here are the important urls to remember
(replacing yoursite.com with your actual
domain name)
If I recall the initial setup correctly,
http://www.yoursite.com/webmail
points to
http://www.yoursite.com:2095/,
which is the insecure login. You can also
reach the secure login at
https://www.yoursite.com:2096/,
but I have found that I get a warning
because my domain name isn't the one
that's certified.
I like that Hoast.Com offers us the choice, but
once I made my choice, I preferred
one-click convenience.
Web Mail 'Javascript' Interface:
The head guru recently came up with a
quick
WebMail Javascript interface
that you can use on a web page, allowing
users to logon to their Webmail account
via a web page front end interface.
"Connection Refused" Message:
Webmail uses port 2095 to access your
email. If you get a connection refused
message when using Webmail, chances are
that it is due to a firewall blocking port
2095. Please discuss this with your
company's network administrator.
