Mail

IMAP, SMTP, JMAP and CalDAV

Standard protocol access to mailboxes and calendars.

Updated:

Contents

Mailboxes are standard mailboxes. Any client supporting IMAP can read them, any client supporting SMTP can send through them, and calendars are available over CalDAV. No proprietary protocol is required.

Connection settings

The username is the full e-mail address and the password is the mailbox password. Settings → Mail connection displays the values for the current account.

IMAP    mail.beskos.com   port 993   SSL/TLS
SMTP    mail.beskos.com   port 465   SSL/TLS
SMTP    mail.beskos.com   port 587   STARTTLS
JMAP    https://mail.beskos.com/.well-known/jmap
CalDAV  https://mail.beskos.com/dav/

Submission ports

Ports 465 and 587 are both supported for submission. Port 465 negotiates encryption on connection; port 587 upgrades the connection with STARTTLS. Either may be used.

Automatic configuration

Outlook and Thunderbird configure themselves from the e-mail address, using the autoconfig and SRV records published with the domain. Where a client requests manual settings, the values are listed above.

Calendars and contacts

Calendars are available over CalDAV on the same host. Contacts export in vCard format and calendars in iCalendar (.ics) format from within the applications.
