Accessing mailboxes using an email client was created by Paul Vincent
As recommended, I've created a couple of mailboxes, "admin" and "webmaster" for our domain, rather than using email forwarding. Now I want to use an email client to access those mailboxes, rather than going in via the HCP. The POP server is easy enough, "mail.buteramblers.org.uk", but what should I be giving as the username and password to access the mailbox? I've tried "admin" and the password I set for that mailbox - nope, authentication failed. I tried the email address and password combination I use to access the HCP - authentication failed again. So, clearly I'm missing something. What username/password combo should I be using to access the mailbox?
