POP3 Email Setup on Android (IMAP Preferred)

POP3 downloads mail to one Android device. We recommend IMAP instead so mail stays in sync — see How to Set Up Your Email on Android. Use POP only if you have a specific reason.

POP3 settings

Setting Value
Account typePOP3
Incoming servermail.yourdomain.com — port 995, SSL/TLS
Outgoing servermail.yourdomain.com — port 465, SSL/TLS
UsernameFull email address
PasswordEmail password

In the Gmail / Samsung Email app

  1. Add account → Other → choose POP3 when offered.
  2. Enter the settings above. Do not choose “accept all certificates.”
  3. If “leave messages on server” is available, set a delete-after period carefully.

Still stuck? Prefer IMAP, or open a ticket at clients.cidhosting.net/submitticket.php.
