You may have already provided your mail server address during the purchase process. If not, you can check or update your mail server address by following these steps.

Add a Mail Server IP Address or Domain

As a reminder, this is the destination mail server IP address where you want email to be delivered. VIPRE needs this address in order to deliver mail to your server.

  1. From the Customer Dashboard, expand the Service Settings menu
  2. Select Inbound Routing.
  3. Select Add Site, at the bottom of the page
  4. A box will open called Site Information; enter a description for the mail server you are configuring, e.g. “Hosted Server” or “Clearwater Office”
  5. Select the Default Site checkbox if this entry is going to be the primary delivery point
  6. Click the plus sign (+) to enter the mail server IP address (preferred) or customer domain
  7. Confirm the Port and Priority are correct and select the blue checkmark to confirm
  8. When done, select Save 

Important 

You can create Multiple Sites with multiple server entries if you have a client with multiple domains, each having a different Server Delivery point. For assistance setting up multiple sites, contact Support.
