Configure Apple Mail (iOS app) with IMAP profile (email)

Update 03/17/2026

This guide explains how to connect the Apple Mail mobile app on iOS to an email address hosted by Infomaniak.

 

Preamble

  • Your iOS device will be automatically configured via .mobileconfig configuration profiles compatible with Apple, unlike a manual configuration.
  • It is possible to delete a configuration profile once installed (scroll down to the bottom of this page for the instructions).
  • The various services offered by Infomaniak are all compatible with the corresponding standard protocols (IMAP/SMTP for email, for example), therefore if you encounter a problem with third-party software, contact its publisher or a Partner and consult the support policy as well as section 11.9 of the Infomaniak Terms of Service.
