settings for Outlook (latest ver) Windows for Mediacom

I have tried all combinations but cannot get outlook to connect to Mediacom.

Want to use IMAP settings

Mediacom suggested I

incoming; mail.mediacombb.net Port 587 ssl/tls (I have tried 995 and 993 to no avail)

outgoing; smtp.mediacombb.net Port 465 ssl/tls

once i get the right setting for the incoming server it complains that outgoing server disconnected. If i get the outgoing to work the incoming complains.

any constructive help is welcome.

TIA

Hello Bodisafa,

I’m Segunfunmi, an Independent Advisor and Microsoft user like you. Thanks for posting the query here in this forum.

According to Mediacom’s support page, the recommended IMAP server settings for Mediacom email are as follows:

Incoming: mail.mediacombb.net with SSL/TLS encryption and port 993 Outgoing: smtp.mediacombb.net with STARTTLS encryption and port 587. If STARTTLS is unavailable, you can use SSL/TLS encryption and port 465 instead. It’s important to note that the login name or “identity name” should be the full email address, either ************************* or ********************

You can also visit the Microsoft support link below for further instructions: https://support.microsoft.com/article/8361e398-8af4-4e97-b147-6c6c4ac95353 https://support.microsoft.com/article/c82de912-adcc-4787-8283-45a1161f3cc3

If you have tried these settings and are still experiencing issues, contacting Mediacom’s customer support might be helpful for further assistance. They may be able to help troubleshoot the problem and provide more specific guidance. Is there anything else I can help with?

Kind Regards, Segunfunmi.
