IMAP

Update Email Settings

Configure your email for IMAP usage.

Step 1 of 4: Email Address

• Enter your email address.
• Provider is auto-detected.
• Some providers (like Outlook) require OAuth2.

Step 2 of 4: Password

• For OAuth2 providers, password entry is skipped.

Step 3 of 4: Start OAuth Flow

• Type y to start the OAuth authentication flow.
• A browser window will open so you can log in with your email provider.
• Currently required for Outlook.

Step 4 of 4: Catchall Domain

• Enter your catchall domain (e.g., example.com).
• This is optional and does not require further setup.
• Catchall will not work for IMAP — you still need a master email set up in Step 1 for receiving codes.

App Password Setup Guide

If your provider uses two-factor authentication (2FA), you must create an App Password for IMAP access.
