Roundcube email in a third-part client

These are just my notes on setting up Roundcube email in desktop mail (eg Pegasus mail).

If your address is something like

fred@myserver.org

then to set up a mail client rather than use the web portal, your IMAP server is probably:

mail.myserver.org

your port is 993 and your security protocol is SSL.

Put your user name and password in as appropriate (depending on your email program):

The configuration box in pmail. IMAP server is mail.myserver.org and port is 993If need be, choose SSL separately:

Box for Direct SSL connect has been checkedFor sending, it’s much the same; in my case the SMTP server is the same address as the IMAP server:

mail.myserver.org

and I can choose STARTTLS or SSL. For STARTTLS, port is 587, for SSL it is 465.

I found both worked. Again, putting my login information in as appropriate.

SMTP config -- STARTTLS is checked (port 587), and user name and password entered as neededEasy.
