Freenetname (FNN) / (MAAF) email settings for MS Outlook.

Hi,

Today I have an issue sending emails from my FNN account - receiving is still fine. Another post on this.

Could any FNN users still out there please send me their exact outgoing server settings? So I can compare with mine - which as I say have been working fine for years?Huh

Just curious to see what other FNN users are using?

Many thanks - Darrell Gosden

BTW - my credentials work fine on the plusnet email web interface so they should be valid.

As nobody has replied to this question in a month,  Here is what AI says -

 

For Madasafish email transferred to Greenby, use these SMTP settings:

Recommended SMTP (outgoing) settings

Setting Value Notes
SMTP Server mail.enmail.co Preferred Greenby server (valid certificates). Alternatives that often work: mail.plusnet.enmail.co or (sometimes) relay.plus.net
Port 587 Recommended
Encryption STARTTLS Required for reliable sending
Alternative Port 465 Use with SSL/TLS instead
Username Full email address (e.g. [email protected]) Important – do not use just the username part
Password Your mailbox password Same as before
Authentication Required / Yes Must be enabled
 
 

Notes & tips

  • Greenby’s official position is that settings should not need changing, but many users (especially after full migration or when the original Plusnet account is closed) need to switch the outgoing server to one of the *.enmail.co addresses above.
  • Port 25 with no encryption sometimes works but is frequently blocked by ISPs and is not recommended.
  • If you get certificate warnings with mail.plusnet.enmail.co, try mail.enmail.co instead (it has proper certificates for ports 587 and 465).
  • Username must be the full @madasafish.com address for Madasafish (and similar legacy brands). Using the old short username or account+mailbox format often fails after migration.

Incoming (for reference)

  • IMAP: imap.plus.net or mail.plus.net (or mail.madasafish.com), port 993, SSL/TLS
  • POP3: same servers, port 995, SSL/TLS

These settings are based on Plusnet’s official migration guidance for Madasafish accounts plus widespread successful reports from the Plusnet Community after transfer to Greenby. If they still don’t work, log into the Greenby portal (using your old Plusnet credentials) and check/reset the mailbox password there, or contact Greenby support.
