SMTP/IMAP

Kurrier supports connecting to any standard SMTP and IMAP server — letting you send and receive emails through your own mail host. This option is perfect if you already have an email account with a provider such as Gmail (App Password), Outlook, Zoho, Proton, or a custom domain managed through cPanel or another hosting provider.

1. Overview

When you add an SMTP/IMAP account in Kurrier, two connections are created:

• SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol) — used to send emails
• IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) — used to receive and sync incoming emails

You can configure only SMTP (for outbound mail) or both SMTP + IMAP (for full two-way sync).

6. Best Practices
