1. Cannot Access Eclipse Webmail Login Page

Symptoms

Fixes

Cause Solution
Wrong address used Always use: https://webmail.eclipse1.co.uk
HTTPS is blocked by the local firewall Ensure secure ports are allowed (443)
Browser security issue Refresh or try another browser
DNS issue with the domain email Still use the above login URL — does not rely on email domain DNS

Tip: Do not use /webmail With your domain, Eclipse Webmail requires the full URL above.
