Frequently Asked Questions

Does using a single server address cause problems?

No. The mail server automatically separates IMAP / SMTP / POP3 services based on port number.

Will my email land in spam?

With proper SPF, DKIM, and DMARC configuration, spam risk is minimal.

Email not arriving after DNS change

DNS propagation may not be complete. Wait 24 hours.
