There are over 50 different email clients that can be used to send and receive email and each of those has various different versions of software which all act and look different from the previous version. Because of this, we’ve created this page to help define the default settings for all Oley Media Group email accounts for use with any email client.

DO NOT USE:
- Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) with the POP and SMTP connection, or (Make sure it is set to OFF)
- SMTP authentication for security. (Make sure this is unticked)
Ensure that your operating system and email client have the latest updates.
