If you want to access your BizHarvest email from a computer, we recommend using BizHarvest webmail at:
You can also configure your BizHarvest mailbox in a desktop email application using the server settings listed above.
Troubleshooting
Gmail says the username or password is incorrect
Confirm that your username is your complete email address.
For example:
Correct: jane@example.com
Incorrect: jane
Also verify that you can sign in to BizHarvest webmail at https://mail.bizharvest.com using the same password.
Gmail cannot connect to the incoming server
Verify:
Server: imap.emailarray.com
Port: 993
Security: SSL/TLS
Gmail receives email but cannot send
Verify:
SMTP Server: smtp.emailarray.com
Port: 465
Security: SSL/TLS
Require Sign-in: Enabled
The SMTP username should be your complete email address.
Messages aren't synchronized between devices
Make sure the account was configured as IMAP, not POP3.
IMAP keeps your mailbox and folders synchronized between the server and your devices.
If you use BizHarvest webmail, Gmail, and another email application, actions such as reading, deleting, or organizing messages should synchronize across those services when the account is configured with IMAP.
