Time to Complete (in minutes):  0

Question:
How do I configure my mobile computing device to connect to the VT Mail server?
Answer:

There is a wide variety of pop mail clients for mobile computing devices. At any time, phone carriers may change the client that is preinstalled on the phones they sell. Since 4Help has no way of testing all of these clients, we can only provide the most basic configuration settings. We do not guarantee that they will work with your particular phone/client, however most phones do work with these settings.If you have trouble configuring your phone/client using these settings, contact your phone service provider.

The settings to connect to the VT Mail server are:

  • Username:[Your PID]@vt.edu

    Note: Replace [Your PID] with your PID.

  • Incoming server:pop.vt.edu
  • Incoming server uses SSL. Use port 995.
  • Outgoing SMTP server:auth.smtp.vt.edu
  • Outgoing server uses SSL. Use port 465.
