Set up GARMTECH Business Email in Apple Mail (macOS, IMAP)

This guide shows how to add a GARMTECH Business Email mailbox to Apple Mail on macOS using IMAP (recommended). IMAP keeps mail synchronized across all your devices.

Before you start

• Make sure you know the mailbox password (or an app password if 2FA is enabled in GARMTECH.Email).
• Find your mail server hostname in My.GARMTECH → your Email service details (it is usually the same hostname for IMAP and SMTP).

Step 1: Add the account in Apple Mail

1. Open Mail on your Mac.
2. Go to Mail → Add Account…
3. Select Other Mail Account… and click Continue.
4. Enter:
   • Name (any display name)
   • Email Address (example: user@example.com)
   • Password

If Apple Mail cannot detect settings automatically, choose Manual Configuration and enter the server settings below.

Step 2: Server settings (IMAP + SMTP)

• Account Type: IMAP
• Incoming Mail Server (IMAP): your email server hostname from My.GARMTECH
• IMAP Port: 993
• IMAP SSL/TLS: enabled
• Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): same hostname (or the SMTP hostname from My.GARMTECH)
• SMTP Port: 465
• SMTP SSL/TLS: enabled
• SMTP Authentication: enabled
• Username: full email address (example: user@example.com)
• Password: mailbox password (or app password)

Step 3: Verify outgoing server authentication

1. Mail → Settings (or Preferences) → Accounts.
2. Select your mailbox → open Server Settings.
3. Disable “Automatically manage connection settings” (if needed) and confirm SMTP authentication is enabled.

Testing

• Send an email to an external address (for example, Gmail) and confirm it is delivered.
• Reply back to confirm incoming mail works.

Web access: you can always access your mailbox via GARMTECH.Email webmail.
