Retrieve Arcor Mails via Android
To access your Arcor emails via Android, you must first set up your email account on your smartphone. In this practical tip we will show you how.
Which Android app do you want to use to access your Arcor emails?
How you have to proceed depends on the email client used: the way is different in every Android app. We use two examples to show you how to set up your Arcor email account:
- "Kaiten Email": Click on the big plus symbol in the top right corner of the main menu. Enter your full Arcor email address and password below and click "Manual Setup". Here you define "IMAP account" as the account type and click on "Next".
- HTC Mail app: When you open the Android app, you will be asked for the mail service provider. Here you select "Other (POP3 / IMAP)" and then enter your Arcor email address and your password as email data. After clicking on "Manual setup" you can set "IMAP" as the protocol.

Now you are asked for the settings for the incoming server. Depending on the email client used, the individual items may be named differently:
- Email address: Your full Arcor email address
- Username: Your online Arcor username
- Password / Password: Your Arcor password
- IMAP server: imap.arcor.de
- Security type: SSL
- (Server) port: 993
Under Outgoing server, check the box "Registration required" and enter the following data:
- Username and password as above
- SMTP server: mail.arcor.de
- Security type: SSL
- Port: 465
If it is not possible to access mails in this way, your access data may be incorrect. We will help you further if you have forgotten your login data.
