Webmail Calendars & Contacts

Calendars and Contacts Setup

With Register4Less's email service, you can maintain your contacts and calendar within your domain-based webmail interface, and access these using your smartphone. This can also be accessed from your desktop's contacts and calendar apps.

To set this up (example given here is iOS 8 on an iPhone), follow these steps:

Tap Settings

Tap on Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and then on Under Accounts, tap Add Account

Choose Other for the account type.

How to Set Up Your Calendars

Tap Add CalDav Account

Enter your email address account information:

Server will be in the form of: ahsN.R4L.com:2080 where N is a number.  

To determine your server name, go on your web browser, and type in http://webmail. plus your domain. You will be forwarded to https://ahsN.r4l.com:2096. The N of course will be the actual number of the server, so something like ahs4.R4L.com.

Username is your complete email address.

Password is of course the password you have created the account with. If you're not sure what this is, you can reset the password, but you will then need to change this on any device you use to connect to your email.

Description is optional.  It is simply a text description to differentiate different accounts if you are connecting more than one.

A Note About Port Numbers

In the URLs above, :2080 and :2096 are the port numbers on the server being connected to. 2080 is the port reserved to connect to CalDav, and 2096 is the port for encrypted webmail login.

All of the settings for server, username and password will be the same as for configuring your contacts.
