Setting up your Windstream email through the email client on your PC or mobile device is easy. Call now to order (855) 212-9648. Apple's Mail e-mail client that is included with OS X is widely used by Mac owners for managing their e-mail accounts, be they on Apple's MobileMe or iCloud services or from a third party like. The maximum size of attachments with your Windstream email is 25 megabytes (MB). This limit is the total file size of all attachments on one email. If you need to send multiple files that add up to more than 25 MB, try sending one attachment per email, or compress the files. I recently switched to Windstream dsl and have 5 email accounts set up there. I can access the accounts through the web. I can set up the accounts in Thunderbird and can receive emails.

I have searched (for months) and can’t keep the outgoing working without using the WiFi at home or logging in through Safari at Windstream website. I do have a desktop which is on maybe once or twice a month. The email settings include imap.windstream.net and smtp.windstream.net I read not to have SSL off, which I’ve done. My username and password ARE correct. I’ve deleted accounts and re-entered the information. It might work once or twice. I even turn my phone off and back on, still won’t work. It’s very frustrating because I can’t send emails away from home using the app.
