The built-in Mail app on iPhone and iPad works well with FimuroHost email. Setting the account up as IMAP keeps your messages and folders in sync with webmail and your other devices.
Before you start
Have your full email address and mailbox password ready. The server details are:
| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Incoming server (IMAP) | imap.stackmail.com |
| IMAP port / security | 993 with SSL/TLS |
| Outgoing server (SMTP) | smtp.stackmail.com |
| SMTP port / security | 465 with SSL/TLS, or 587 with STARTTLS |
| Username | Your full email address, e.g. [email protected] |
| Password | The password of that mailbox |
| Authentication | Normal password; the outgoing server requires authentication |
Add the account
- Open Settings. On recent iOS versions go to Apps → Mail → Mail Accounts; on older versions it's Mail → Accounts (or Accounts & Passwords).
- Tap Add Account, then Other, then Add Mail Account.
- Fill in:
- Name – how your name should appear to recipients.
- Email – your full address, e.g.
[email protected]. - Password – your mailbox password.
- Description – optional label such as "Work".
- Tap Next and make sure IMAP is selected at the top.
- Under Incoming Mail Server: Host Name
imap.stackmail.com, User Name your full email address, and your password. - Under Outgoing Mail Server: Host Name
smtp.stackmail.com, User Name your full email address, and your password. - Tap Next, keep Mail switched on and tap Save.
Check the outgoing server settings
iOS sometimes guesses the wrong outgoing port, so it's worth checking once:
- Open the account you just added and tap Account.
- Tap SMTP (under Outgoing Mail Server) and then
smtp.stackmail.comunder Primary Server. - Make sure the server is On, Use SSL is switched on, authentication is Password, and the server port is
587(or465). - Tap Done and go back to save.
Common problems
- "Cannot Verify Server Identity": you've used a server name based on your own domain. Change it to the
stackmail.comnames above. - Only the Inbox shows up: set the IMAP Path Prefix (under Account → Advanced) to
INBOXor leave it blank. - Password rejected: re-type it carefully; iOS may have auto-capitalised the first letter.
