In our examples we consider the following information:

- Account name: `test`
- Mailbox: `test@alwaysdata.net`

They must be replaced by your personal login information: 

|Server|Service|Information||
|---|---|---|---|
|Incoming|IMAP|Hostname|imap-*[account]*.alwaysdata.net|
|||Port|993|
|||Username| Your email address - for example *contact\@example.org*|
|||Password| The password of your email address|
|||Authentication method| Normal password|
||POP3|Host| pop-*[account]*.alwaysdata.net|
|||Port| 995|
|||Username|Your email address - for example *contact\@example.org*|
|||Password|The password of your email address|
|||Authentication method| Normal password|
|Outgoing|SMTP|Host|smtp-*[account]*.alwaysdata.net|
|||Port|465|
|||Username|Your email address - for example *contact\@example.org*|
|||Password|The password of your email address|
|||Authentication method| Normal password|

> [!TIP]
> *[account]* must be replaced by the name of your account and *contact\@example.org* by your email address. They are defined in the **Emails > Addresses** menu of our administration interface.


## MacOS: Mail.app application

Go to **File > Add an account > Another Mail account...**

- Specify the connection information and choose IMAP or POP for *incoming* mail.
- If you get an SSL error message, go ahead and click on **Connect**, you can still fill-in the new connection information later on.

Leave password authentication in place.
