Default FirstClass Email Client

I was able to get firstclass working on my iPhone and thought some of you might want this as well...

Here are the settings that you will need:


Incoming Mail Server:
Host Name: fc.(your domain name here).(net, com, org....)
User Name: login for first class (make sure it is your login name not your email, these are each different for me.)
Password: ********

Outgoing Mail Server:
Host Name:fc.(your domain name here).(net, com, org....)
User Name: (none)
Password: (none)

Make sure that SSL is turned off. You won't be able to select that option but when you save the settings and it try's to verify your setup it will ask you if you want to turn SSL off. Answer YES! TWICE!

Let me know if anyone used this.

If you are using the firstclass client to check your email you should be able to use fc.bal.henderson.k12.nc.us. That would be just a guess though. I checked with my network admin and they told me that I was able to use IMAP settings to access our school email. Hope this helps.

Default first class red flags disappear

those were great instructions to get first class email on my iphone! it was so easy and worked no problem. the only issue i have is that as soon as the email is sent from my school's server to my iphone, the red flag on my school email disappears, so i don't always know when i have new email at work. any ideas or suggestions how to remedy that?
thanks!

I just tried these settings on my iPhone, but I receive the error that no Incoming Server was found. Is there something that I am missing or do I need to perhaps contact our Server Manager ? Someone please let me know!

Default FC mail worked for me, can we sync contacts or calendar?

Thanks to your instructions, I have FC mail on my iPod touch. Don't ask me why, I use a Blackberry as well, but it's fun. :-) But I'm wondering if there's any way I can sync the FC calendar or contacts as well?

Thanks!
