Important Information Below About Your MYACTV.NET Email Account

If you are one of our many customers who use our MyACTV.net email with your Internet service, please read our update below regarding your password.

Zoho, our email service partner, has notified us of a security enhancement for customers using email applications on their mobile phones, computers, etc.

If you use one of the many POP/IMAP email apps (such as Outlook, Thunderbird, or Apple Mail) to receive your MyACTV.net emails on your mobile phone, computer, etc., you must generate a password through Zoho to verify your identity. You must only do this one time for each app or device you use, or again if you change email apps or devices.

Please use the simple step-by-step instructions below to complete this process before January 23, 2023 to continue receiving MyACTV.net email delivery to your email app.

Our Technical Support Team is available 24/7 should you have any questions or need assistance. Visit our Live Chat or call us at 301-797-5000.
