  • Incoming mail server (IMAP): imap.your-actual-domain.com — port 993 (SSL)
  • Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.your-actual-domain.com — port 587 (STARTTLS)
  • Username: your full email address (e.g. youractual@your-actual-domain.com)  ·  Password: your email password

IMAP is recommended so your email stays in sync across all your devices.

(If you select to use POP instead, the POP incoming uses mail.your-actual-domain.com on port 995/SSL.)
