IMAP with GMX - is that possible?
If you want to check your mails from GMX, you can do this not only via POP3, but also with IMAP. We'll show you what data you need.
GMX: Receive mails via IMAP
The advantage of IMAP is that the actions that you carry out via your mail program or smartphone are transferred to all devices. Via POP3, for example, deleted mails are only deleted on the end device, but not from your GMX mailbox.
- Inbox: For the inbox server you need the following address "imap.gmx.net" and if necessary port 993.
- Outbox: Use the address "mail.gmx.net" and the port 587 for the outbox server.
- POP3: Choose POP3, choose "pop3.gmx.net" and "mail.gmx.net" for your inbox and outbox.
We will explain exactly what the differences between IMAP and POP3 are in the next practical tip.
