Apple Mail

Please note - Although we provide some information on how to setup various email clients, if you have difficulty setting up your email client (such as Outlook), you will need seek advice from a competent IT person or IT specialist to manage your computer.
Alternatively, you can always use our Webmail - which does not require any setup, simply visit webmail.zeald.com on your internet browser.

  10. Enter the Outgoing Mail Server details.
    Your Outgoing mail server details will depend on which Internet Service Provider (ISP) you are with
    eg. Telecom Xtra, Vodafone, Slingshot, Orcon etc

    some examples of Outgoing (SMTP) mail server details
    Internet Service Provider (ISP) SMTP Server
    Xtra smtp.xtra.co.nz
    Orcon mail.orcon.net.nz
    IHUG/Vodafone smtp.ihug.co.nz

    If you do not see your Internet Service Provider (ISP) above, you will need to contact your ISP's helpdesk for the details.  

    Zeald cannot provide you with an SMTP server because many ISPs block access to external SMTP servers as a measure to control spam.
