Instead of opening a web browser and logging into Webmail every time you need to check client communications, you can connect your business email directly to the native Mail app on your iPhone or Gmail app on your Android smartphone.

Follow this exact guide to configure your email in under 3 minutes.


Standard Ovation Hall Secure Mail Settings (SSL/TLS)

Keep these parameters handy before beginning:

  • Incoming Server (IMAP): mail.yourdomain.com | Port: 993 | Security: SSL/TLS
  • Outgoing Server (SMTP): mail.yourdomain.com | Port: 465 | Security: SSL/TLS
  • Username: Your full email address (e.g., info@yourdomain.com)
  • Password: The password assigned when creating the inbox in cPanel.
Tip: Always select IMAP rather than POP3 on smartphones. IMAP keeps your inbox synchronized across all your devices simultaneously.

Setup on iPhone (iOS Mail App)

1. Open Settings on your iPhone.

2. Scroll down and tap Apps > Mail (or Mail > Accounts depending on iOS version).

3. Tap Add Account > Other > Add Mail Account.

4. Enter your Name, Email, Password, and Description. Tap Next.

5. Select IMAP at the top.

6. Under Incoming Mail Server:

  • Host Name: mail.yourdomain.com
  • User Name: Your full email address
  • Password: Your email password

7. Under Outgoing Mail Server:

  • Host Name: mail.yourdomain.com
  • User Name: Your full email address
  • Password: Your email password (even if marked optional, always enter it!)

8. Tap Save. Your iPhone will verify the SSL certificate and sync your emails immediately.


Setup on Android (Gmail App)

1. Open the Gmail App on your Android phone.

2. Tap your profile picture in the top-right corner and select Add another account.

3. Choose Other.

4. Enter your full business email address and tap Manual Setup > Personal (IMAP).

5. Enter your password.

6. Enter the Incoming Server details (mail.yourdomain.com, Port 993, Security type SSL/TLS).

7. Enter the Outgoing Server details (mail.yourdomain.com, Port 465, Require sign-in Yes).

8. Tap Next and configure sync frequency.
