Troubleshooting

A Quick Checklist to Help Resolve Email Problems

• Verify that you are connected to Expedient.
• Try accessing your email through an email program and through Webmail. If you cannot log on using either method, it may be a username or password problem. Try re-typing your username and password. Note: If you are using Expedient's Webmail, we recommend that you log in with your entire Expedient email address.
• If you can log on to Webmail but not your email program, check your email program settings. Refer to the Configuration section above and "Server Info -> Mail Servers" on the menu. Make sure you have entered your username and password correctly and that the incoming and outgoing mailserver is correct.
• There may be a LARGE message in your email with an attachment that is causing problems. Use our Webmail system to determine whether or not this is the case. You can download the attachment from Webmail or, if necessary, delete the message.
• If you use Norton AntiVirus, please be sure your email settings are correct. Norton can sometimes change these settings and prevent mail from being received or sent. Click here for more information.
• Do you have more than one email account configured in your email client software in a single 'identity' or 'profile'? There could be a conflict with another account you have configured in your email software.
• New customers: Have you removed mail account settings for your old ISP in your email program?
• Are you getting disconnected when you check email? See troubleshooting below for the possible problem and solution.
• Is your email box close to or over the quota?
