Configuration or Setup of BigPond Email Account
Setting up your BigPond email account in the right manner makes it possible to access your emails seamlessly across devices. If this is the first time you are setting up BigPond email, kick off by preparing the relevant server settings. There are a number of different BigPond options, such as IMAP and POP for incoming mail and SMTP for outgoing mail. Using IMAP is better since it enables email synchronization across multiple devices, while POP just facilitates email downloading to a device.
In configuring BigPond email, first go to the device or
application email client and go to the account settings section and click the
“Add Account” option. Provide your BigPond email address in full form
(username@bigpond.com) as well as the password. For incoming mail in the
account, use the IMAP server imap.telstra.com on port 993 with SSL. Enable the
SMTP server, which is smtp.telstra.com, and for outgoing mail, set this up on
port 465 or 587 with secure SSL enabled.
