Common Issues & Solutions

❌ "Connection timeout" or "Cannot reach server"

Solution: Double-check the server address. It's usually mail.yourdomain.comwhere yourdomain.com is your actual domain. Make sure you're using the correct domain.

❌ "Authentication failed"

Solution: Verify your email password in SiteGround. Make sure you're using the password for the email account, not your SiteGround hosting account password. You can reset the email password in SiteGround if needed.

❌ Can't find email settings in SiteGround

Solution: SiteGround's interface may vary. Try:

  • Looking in Site ToolsEmail
  • Checking cPanel (if available) → Email Accounts
  • Contacting SiteGround support for your specific server settings

❌ Port 993 or 587 not working

Solution: Some SiteGround servers use different ports. Try:

  • IMAP: Port 143 with TLS, or 993 with SSL
  • SMTP: Port 465 with SSL, or 587 with TLS
  • Toggle the "Use TLS" option if one doesn't work
