How to use pop&smtp by desktop email client?
Hello there,
I'm new to server stuff, I just in stall CP at DigitalOcean just like the document say. It all working great.
I can access RoundCube webmail (send and recieve) fine.
I want to access email by desktop email client or iPhone mail app. I use parameter in email client like pop.domain.com / mail.domain.com It not working. Do I have to setup something else? both VestaCP and DigitalOcean DNS.
Thanks

First of all. Don't use pop. Use imap to connect to your mailbox. Second, I don't know where your MX records in DNS are pointing to, but if that's mail.yourdomain.com then use that. Or, you can try to use your server's IP address. Third, either hire a professional of become one if you're going to use this commercially.
