email_setup:mac_mail_app_account_setup

Setting up the Mac Mail app for a riverland.net.au account

  • Open System preferences (the gear icon)
  • Internet accounts
  • + to add another
  • List of account types: icloud etc. scroll down to the bottom. Click “add other”
  • Add a Mail Account
  • put in your name, email address and password
  • It will probably say “Account must be manually configured”: that's ok.
  • click POP server. enter mail.riverland.net.au
  • If it's an IMAP account, then click IMAP server, servername is mail.rivwe.com
    • Username = email address, password. It seems to guess SSL and port numbers successfully.
