Here is a quick guide to help you set up your existing email address to your favorite email client on desktop, tablet or smartphone.
This guide will set them up as an IMAP account.
IMAP is recommended rather than POP, because it’s a protocol made to support several devices accessing one same account, with all folders synced on our server, which also guarantees that our backups will be executed.
You can synchronize your mailbox through multiple devices, such as smartphones and tablets, using your favorite e-mail app. You can use any e-mail app available on your device, including the native email app.
To setup your email account as an IMAP account in a new email client, follow these steps to add the email account to your preferred email application on desktop, smartphone or tablet (Outlook, Apple Mail, Thunderbird, Android Mail, etc.).
