Changing your SmarterMail host name

It is very important to change your SmarterMail host name.  Failure to do will result in your e-mail server not working properly.

1. Login to SmarterMail

2. Select Settings -> General Settings



3. Select the Server Info tab.

4. Under Hostname, replace the existing text with your Fully Qualified Domain Name for the mail server.  We recommend mail.<PutYourDomainNameHereDontJustCopyAndPasteThis>.com.  For instance, we would be mail.activevps.com.  Once that is complete, hit Save and you are all set.
