Cahneg hosting default mail server inmotionhsoting

A very specific question!

InMotion Hosting is a web hosting company that offers a range of hosting plans, including shared hosting, VPS, and dedicated hosting. By default, InMotion Hosting uses a mail server called Cpanel's Exim mail server, which is a popular open-source mail transfer agent (MTA).

Here's a breakdown of the default mail server settings on InMotion Hosting:

  1. Mail Server Software: Exim (a popular open-source MTA)
  2. Mail Server Configuration: Cpanel's Exim configuration is used by default, which includes settings for spam filtering, virus scanning, and other security features.
  3. Mail Server Ports: The default ports used by Exim on InMotion Hosting are:
    • SMTP (outgoing mail): port 25
    • POP3 (incoming mail): port 110
    • IMAP (incoming mail): port 143
  4. Mail Server Authentication: Cpanel's Exim uses a combination of username/password authentication and SSL/TLS encryption to secure mail transactions.
  5. Mail Server Storage: Mailboxes are stored on the hosting server's file system, and are managed through Cpanel's File Manager or the cPanel interface.

If you're using InMotion Hosting and need to configure your mail server settings, you can do so through the cPanel interface or by contacting InMotion Hosting's support team. They can help you set up custom mail server settings, such as configuring custom mail server ports or enabling/disabling specific features.
