Troubleshooting Common Issues

Authentication Failed / Cannot Verify Account

This is the most common issue during setup. Here is how to fix it:

• Double-check your password. The password is for your My Biz Email email account, not your My Biz Email dashboard login (they may differ if you changed one separately).
• Use your full email address as the username. Enter you@yourdomain.com, not just you.
• Make sure the account exists. Log in to your My Biz Email dashboard and confirm the email account is created and active under your domain.

Cannot Send Email (SMTP Error)

If you can receive email but cannot send, check these settings:

• Outgoing server must be mymail.76ds.host on port 587 with STARTTLS enabled.
• Authentication must be turned on for the outgoing server. Apple Mail sometimes defaults to "no authentication" for SMTP \u2014 change it to Password.
• Make sure the SMTP username and password are filled in (same as your incoming credentials).

SSL Certificate Errors

If you see a warning about the server certificate:

• Make sure you are using mymail.76ds.host as the server \u2014 not your own domain name. The SSL certificate is issued for mymail.76ds.host, so using any other hostname will trigger a mismatch warning.
• If prompted, tap Continue or Trust to accept the certificate. This is safe when connecting to mymail.76ds.host.

Email Not Syncing or Slow to Update

• On iPhone/iPad, go to Settings > Mail > Accounts > Fetch New Data and set your My Biz Email account to Push or Fetch every 15 minutes for faster updates.
• On Mac, go to Mail > Settings > Accounts, select your My Biz Email account, and set Check for new messages to Automatically.
• Make sure you have a stable internet connection. IMAP requires an active connection to sync.

Calendar or Contacts Not Syncing

• Verify that your CalDAV/CardDAV server is set to mymail.76ds.host (not https://mymail.76ds.host \u2014 the device adds the protocol automatically).
• On iPhone, go to Settings > Calendar > Default Calendar and make sure it is set to your My Biz Email calendar if you want new events to save there.
• On Mac, open Calendar > Settings > Accounts and click Refresh Calendars to force a sync.

Summary of All Server Settings

Service	Server	Port	Security
IMAP (Incoming)	mymail.76ds.host	993	SSL/TLS
SMTP (Outgoing)	mymail.76ds.host	587	STARTTLS
CalDAV (Calendar)	mymail.76ds.host	443	SSL/TLS
CardDAV (Contacts)	mymail.76ds.host	443	SSL/TLS

All services use your full My Biz Email email address as the username and your email account password for authentication.
