Shantideva Online has recently switched to new servers and the old OpenWebmail browser is no longer supported, but there are several suitable alternatives available.

Our default mail broswer is powered by "iMailReader" and can be accessed by clicking on the "WebMail Login" on any page of Shantideva Online or by going to the following address:

http://www.imailreader.com/

The "iMailReader" program was developed by BeWide Technolologies and allows you to access other email accounts that you might have other than your account at Shantideva Online, but there are several alternatives supported by our servers, including SquirrelMail, Horde, Outlook Express, Eudora, ect.

If you prefer to use SquirrelMail or Horde, both of which offer multiple language selections, you can go to either of the following addresses:

http://webmail.shantideva.net/3rdparty/squirrelmail/

http://webmail.shantideva.net/horde/

Both of these mail browsers are server-side programs and use a pop-up security login window which requests your username and password, then forwarding you to your email account, but you still MUST use your full email address for your username, as in the example below:

your_username@shantideva.net

Increased Security: If you incorrectly supply your username and password information two times in a row, the server WILL automatically lock your email account for ten (10) minutes and you will NOT be able to access your account. If you attempt to login to your account during this time period, the server will typically reset the lockout time for a longer duration, so please be careful.

You can also access your email account through desktop programs, such as Outlook Express, Eudora, MAC Mail, etc., and the settings for such programs are as follows:

Incoming Mail Server: mail.shantideva.net
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.shantideva.net (requires authentication)

Incoming Mail Port: 110 for POP3, 143 for IMAP
Outgoing Mail Port: 25

If port 25 does not work, try 26, as some ISPs block port 25.

Your username is the same as when using the online webmail browers --- you MUST use your full email address. If entering "your_username@shantideva.net" does not work, please try using "your_username+shantideva.net" instead.
