Manual Configuration

Email

Remember: You’ve got your mail server name with our welcome information. See here (click to support document) what your mail server name may be. Please substitute “YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME” in the table below with your real mail server name.
YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME is NOT your domainname, it is the name of your mail server according your welcome information.

If possible, please always use the “S” variant (“S” = secure, encrypted) of the desired service.
Usually IMAP is also preferred to POP3, which was often used in the past. See: POP or IMAP?

Please use ONE incoming and ONE outgoing servce from this list.

Usage Service Encryption Host Port
Incoming IMAP STARTTLS YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 143
Incoming IMAPS SSL YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 993
Incoming POP3 STARTTLS YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 110
Incoming POP3S SSL YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 995
Outgoing SMTP STARTTLS YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 587
Outgoing SMTPS SSL YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME 465

Please use the “plain” password setting as the authentication mechanism. Contrary to what the name implies, the password will not be transferred to the server in plain text as no authentication is allowed to take place without TLS.

Contacts and calendars

SOGos default calendar (CalDAV) and contacts (CardDAV) URLs (please replace YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME and YOUR-EMAIL-ADDRESS accordingly):

  1. CalDAV - https://**YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME**/SOGo/dav/**YOUR-EMAIL-ADDRESS**/Calendar/personal/
  2. CardDAV - https://**YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME**/SOGo/dav/**YOUR-EMAIL-ADDRESS**/Contacts/personal/

Some applications may require you to use https://**YOUR-MAILSERVER-NAME**/SOGo/dav/ or the full path to your calendar, which can be found and copied from within our business webmail application (SOGo).
