What is shaw incoming mail server

Shaw is a Canadian telecommunications company that provides internet, TV, and phone services to its customers. When it comes to email, Shaw uses a specific set of incoming mail servers to receive emails sent to your Shaw email account.

The Shaw incoming mail server settings are as follows:

• Server name: mail.shaw.ca
• Server type: POP3 or IMAP
• Port: 110 (POP3) or 143 (IMAP)
• Username: Your Shaw email address (e.g., [yourname]@shaw.ca)
• Password: Your Shaw email password

Here's a brief explanation of each setting:

• Server name: This is the hostname or domain name of the mail server that Shaw uses to receive emails. In this case, it's mail.shaw.ca.
• Server type: POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3) and IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) are two common protocols used to retrieve emails from a mail server. POP3 is a simpler protocol that downloads emails from the server to your device, while IMAP allows you to access and manage your emails on the server.
• Port: The port number that your email client uses to connect to the mail server. POP3 typically uses port 110, while IMAP uses port 143.
• Username: Your Shaw email address is used as the username to log in to the mail server.
• Password: Your Shaw email password is used to authenticate your login to the mail server.

To set up your Shaw email account on your device or email client, you'll need to enter these settings. If you're having trouble setting up your email account, you can contact Shaw's customer support for assistance.
