F.A.Q. IMAP and POP3

IMAP and POP3 Email Accounts

For IMAP or POP3 access you need the following information:

 

IMAP or POP3	Email Account Settings for Inbox2DB
Server Type:	IMAP, IMAP SSL, IMAP TLS, POP3 or POP3 SSL
Server Name:	The host name of the mail server
Server Port:	The server port is automatically selected when you choose the server type.
Email Address:	Your email address
User Name:	The user name is often identical to the email address, but can also be different.
User Password:	Your email account password

 

We recommend using an SSL/TLS encrypted connection.
Please contact your mail administrator if you do not know the account data.

 

Authentication:

• Authentication is only possible via user name and password (SSL/TLS).
• If you use MFA (multi-factor authentication), you can use an APP password that enables IMAP access without MFA.
• Web-based authentication, XOAUTH2 or "MS Modern Authentication" cannot be used because the program does not have a web service or backend.
