Use the server and port details below when setting up your email account in Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail or on your phone. Replace yourdomain.com with your own domain.
Recommended settings (encrypted connection)
| Setting | Server address | Port | Security |
|---|---|---|---|
| Incoming server (IMAP) recommended | mail.yourdomain.com | 993 | SSL/TLS |
| Incoming server (POP3) | mail.yourdomain.com | 995 | SSL/TLS |
| Outgoing server (SMTP) | mail.yourdomain.com | 465 | SSL/TLS |

If port 465 is blocked on your network, use port 587 with STARTTLS for the outgoing server.
Unencrypted ports
IMAP 143, POP3 110 and SMTP 25 also work, but your password and email travel over the network as plain text. Use them only temporarily, when an encrypted connection cannot be made.
Why does an encrypted connection (SSL/TLS) matter?
- It encrypts the email traffic between your device and the server, so others cannot read or change it.
- It protects your username and password, especially on public Wi-Fi in cafés and hotels.
- It confirms that the server you connect to really is your email server.
