How to configure Aruba mail. Today, not having an email address means not having at your disposal one of the main means of communication of the modern age.
You have finally decided to create your own email account. Following the advice of your most trusted friends, you have chosen to trust Aruba and its services and now you would like to know how to access your mailbox from all your devices so that you can use them without problems.
If this is the case, I have good news. In this tutorial you will see all the necessary explanations about how to set up Aruba mail.
However, before you can freak out and think the worst, I want to immediately reassure you that setting up Aruba Mail is a very simple operation.
How to configure Aruba mail: parameters
To set up Aruba mail, you need to open your email client (ie the program you want to use to manage your emails) and enter the “coordinates” of the Aruba servers.
These “coordinates” vary depending on the protocol you intend to use to manage your email.
In fact, you can choose between the protocol IMAP and the protocol POP3.
The IMAP protocol, which is the one I recommend you use, is more modern and allows the use of the same account on multiple devices at the same time while keeping messages (both incoming and outgoing) in sync across all workstations, while the POP3 protocol is older and requires the use of the email service on a single device, in fact it deletes messages from remote servers as soon as they are downloaded to the PC (except for the activation of special backup functions).
Having made this necessary distinction, in order to configure Aruba mail in your email client and use it without problems, complete the fields that appear on the screen by entering the following coordinates.
Know that the information that I am going to give you is valid for both domain-linked mailboxes (of type [email protected]) and for mailboxes with the suffix @ aruba.es or @ technet.es.
They are not valid for PEC boxes.
