Mailspring Setup

Mailspring is the recommended desktop email client for accessing Solutech Hub mailboxes.

Account Settings

When adding your account in Mailspring, use Custom IMAP/SMTP (not Gmail, Outlook, etc.).

IMAP (Incoming Mail)

Setting Value
Server mail.solutechhub.com
Port 993
Security SSL / TLS
Username Your full email address (e.g. you@solutechhub.com)
Password Your mailbox password

SMTP (Outgoing Mail)

Setting Value
Server mail.solutechhub.com
Port 465
Security SSL / TLS
Username Your full email address
Password Your mailbox password

Alternative SMTP port: Port 587 with STARTTLS also works if your network blocks 465.

Troubleshooting

"Cannot connect" or connection timeout

  1. Verify you can reach the server: ping mail.solutechhub.com
  2. Check that ports 993 and 465 are not blocked by your firewall or ISP
  3. Try port 587 + STARTTLS as an alternative for SMTP
  4. Contact your administrator to verify your account is active

"Authentication failed"

  1. Double-check your username is the full email address (not just the local part)
  2. Ensure Caps Lock is off — passwords are case-sensitive
  3. Ask your administrator to reset your password if needed

Sent mail not appearing in Sent folder

In Mailspring settings, ensure Save sent messages on server is enabled, or set the Sent folder mapping to Sent (not the local Sent folder).

Large mailbox is slow to load

This is normal for the first sync. Mailspring will cache messages locally after the initial sync.


Mobile Clients

The same settings work for any standard IMAP/SMTP client on iOS or Android.

iOS Mail / Android Gmail app: - Incoming: IMAP, mail.solutechhub.com:993, SSL - Outgoing: SMTP, mail.solutechhub.com:465, SSL

Recommended Android app: FairEmail or K-9 Mail
