Using Your Email with Zimbra
It's always a cinch to log in online to your Workspace Webmail account to do your emailing. But Workspace Webmail also works well with a number of email clients, such as Zimbra™. Like all email clients, Zimbra is a third-party application that lets you manage multiple email accounts from one place.
The steps below outline adding a new email account to Zimbra. Before you start, though, you need to know your POP or IMAP Email Server Settings and ports. To find them, go to the HostingDude Account LOGIN and write down the information that displays under Email Server Settings.
