Earthlink Webmail Settings and Setup
Apart from the fact that you can set up “Earthlink Webmail Settings” on your smartphone [Android and iPhone] and PC [Windows and Mac] to access and send email using your Earthlink email, you also have the option to create eight different emails for free, each with a database size of 100MB, implying that you can have an overall capacity of 800MB to store your data on the email service for free with the Earthlink email.
Earthlink Webmail enables SMTP and IMAP for both the “Ongoing” and “Incoming” server and port allowing enabling Earthlink email to function on smartphones and desktops without using the official Earthlink mobile app or Earthlink Webmail.

Is webmail from EarthLink safe?
The earlier unencrypted POP3 (for checking mail from the server) is supported by Earthlink, but not the newer SSL-encrypted POP3. GMail, on the other hand, only supports the most recent encrypted version and does not allow earlier unencrypted stuff (even if you want to).
Similarly, you might wonder if EarthLink Messaging is secure.
The instructions from CenturyLink suggest encryption for the incoming mail server, yet this option is only available for outbound messages. Furthermore, the EarthLink POP is unencrypted.
Is EarthLink Webmail also free?
With 100MB of storage space, EarthLink SpamBlocker, FREE Virus Blocker TM, and other features, you can check your EarthLink email from any computer with an Internet connection.
