When first accessing the RPOP Connections tab, a list of the already defined connections is displayed. If no connections have been previously set, the list will be blank.


To delete a RPOP connection, click the Delete icon corresponding to it. To edit a connection, click the Edit icon corresponding to its name. In order to add a new connection, press the Add connection link. Whether you are adding or editing a RPOP connection, the parameters you need to configure are the same.

Connection details

Specify the name or IP address of the host from which the emails are retrieved using the Hostname field. To set the port on which the retrieval from the desired hostname is made, use the Port field.

Use the Username and Password fields to specify the authentication details needed to connect for email retrieval.

Retrieval settings

Use the Retrieval interval field to specify the minimum interval in minutes between two email retrievals. Then specify a certain folder of your WebMail account where you want the emails stored using the Folder field. You can also select if email messages are deleted or not from the remote server after retrieval, using the Delete on retrieval drop-down box

Security

Select the desired type of encryption used on the RPOP connection you are configuring from the Encryption drop-down menu. The available options are 'none', 'SSL' and "TLS'. Use the Enable APOP drop-down box to specify if you want to enable APOP authentication for the respective connection.

RPOP Templates

Emails from Yahoo Mail or Google Mail accounts are now available in your WebMail account with the RPOP Templates. Click Add Yahoo! Mail/Google Mail, fill in the account name, password, set the retrieval settings and click the Save connection button to create a new RPOP entry containing defaults for the selected email provider (Yahoo, Google).


By default, a new folder is created in Inbox named 'Google mail' or 'Yahoo mail'. The user can choose not to use the default but instead pick a folder from the list (in this case no new folder is created).


When you are done configuring these parameters, remember to press the Save connection button.
