This guide explains how to connect the desktop app Apple Mail (desktop application on macOS) to an email address hosted by Infomaniak.

Preamble

• It is recommended to configure your macOS computer automatically via configuration profiles .mobileconfig compatible with Apple.
• ⚠️ The various services offered by Infomaniak are all compatible with the corresponding standard protocols (notably IMAP/SMTP for email, WebDAV for sharing, S3/Swift for storage, etc.).
• Therefore, if you encounter a problem with third-party software, contact its publisher or a Partner and consult the support policy as well as article 11.9 of the Infomaniak TOS.

Manually add the email address to the application

Prerequisites

• Create the address within my kSuite or on a Mail Service (Mail Service only, or existing within a kSuite).
• Test the email address password (do not confuse it with the one used to log in to the Infomaniak interface).
• Check on the Mail Service that the automatic diagnosis is correct.
• Have added the email address in question to Mail Infomaniak to use the synchronization assistant and for the Apple profile to work on your devices.

To configure the messaging application:

1. Open the application.
2. Click on Other account.
3. Click on Continue:
   
4. Enter the account name.
5. Enter the email address to be linked.

9. Click on Log in:
   
    
10. There you go, your email address is now configured in the application:
    

Recommended settings

• Incoming IMAP server = mail.infomaniak.com
• IMAP port = 993 (with SSL)
• Outgoing SMTP server = mail.infomaniak.com
• SMTP port & encryption protocol and command/method to activate this protocol:
  • Prioritize port 587 + STARTTLS: this is the official technical standard and the most compatible method with the majority of modern systems for authenticated submission.
  • Tolerate port 465 + SSL/TLS only as a compatibility option or alternative, specifying that it is implicit encryption, but that 587 remains the recommended choice.
• Username = full & complete email address ( ? )
• Password = the one assigned to the email address you want to access ( ? )
• Authentication required to send emails:
  • It is activated in the SMTP settings of your application.
  • Check "use the same parameters as the incoming server" or according to the software/email clients, enter a username (= full & complete email address) and its password.

Refer to this other guide if you are looking for information about other compatible email ports and protocols.

In case of problem

There is no need to contact Infomaniak Support if your email address works well outside the application. The most common error concerns the use of an incorrect password. The troubleshooting guides help you resolve any potential issues:

• Refer to the solutions given in this other guide regarding email in general.
• Delete any Apple configuration profiles linked to your Infomaniak email before starting the configuration again.

And if your Apple Mail no longer works since a change of email password, refer to this other guide.

This guide explains how to set up a different sending and reply address from the email address used on the Infomaniak platform.

✘ UNAVAILABLE with
my kSuite / my kSuite+ (ik.me, etik.com, ikmail.com)

Preamble

• This is useful for working with one of your email aliases or synonym domains.
• This will work with the Infomaniak Mail Web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) as well as with most email software/clients.
  • However, be aware: there is no link between the settings entered in the Signature section of Infomaniak Mail and email software/clients.
  • Each email software/client has its own settings, and you can, for example, define a different reply address within each of the respective tools (read at the bottom of this guide).

Set up the sending address on the Infomaniak Web Mail app

Prerequisites

• The secondary email address that can be used must have been added as:
  • … either an email alias (example: aa@ instead of anna.alpha@) but special aliases excluded:
    
  • … either a synonym domain (example: @short-dom.xyz instead of @my-super-long-domain.xyz).

To access the sending address options:

1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Mail Web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).
2. Click on the Settings icon at the top right of the interface.
3. Check or select the email address concerned in the dropdown menu of the left sidebar.
4. Click on Signatures:
   
5. Click on the action menu ⋮ to the right of the current signature.
6. Click on the pencil icon ✎ to edit the current signature.
7. OR ELSE create a new signature:
   
8. Click on the chevron to expand the Advanced settings section at the bottom of the page.
9. The sending address allows you to define the address that will be mentioned as the sender in the inbox of your recipients.
10. The reply address allows you to receive future responses to your emails (return-path) to a different address (from the options specified in the prerequisites above)…
    • …and if you write a message in response to a reply received on this alias, the signature allowing sending with this alternative identity will be applied instead of the default signature.
11. Validate with the Save button (if this button remains grayed out, make sure all fields are filled in, especially the full name field):
    
12. Write a new message by selecting the corresponding signature:
    

In the example above, the sending address was changed, but not the reply address. This gives the expected result with the recipient (it is enough to look at the headers of the received message to prove it).

Now add the same secondary address in an email software/client, the effect will be the same.

Configure the sending address on an email software/client

Prerequisites

• The secondary email address that can be used must have been added as:
  • …or email alias (example: aa@ instead of anna.alpha@) including special aliases.
  • … either a synonym domain (example: @short-dom.xyz instead of @my-super-long-domain.xyz).

It is possible to configure an email software/client with any existing email address, even if it exists as an alias in your Mail Service. The sending will be done in the same way as with an address defined as "main" email.

Example in the Thunderbird software:

1. Add an account with the correct email parameters related to the alias:
   
2. Write a new message from the email software/client.
3. Once received, the message is correctly described, even in its headers, as being sent from an address that you know is an alias:
   

This guide provides the most common IMAP server addresses. These can be used to perform the copy of the content of your old email addresses to your Infomaniak email address.

IMAP Server Addresses

The hosting platform for your sites *.perso.ch, *.users.ch, *.geneva-link.ch is evolving and this guide presents the procedure to follow to connect to your FTP space.

Modification of login credentials

The current hosting platform relies on the use of a prefix at the level of your FTP username. This is in the following form: persoch_

Thus, if your username was infomaniak, you will now need to use the following user to connect via FTP: persoch_infomaniak.

This guide concerns the email redirection addresses feature, a function available on the Mail Services and used to create addresses intended solely for redirecting emails.

Preamble

• This feature allows you to create a "virtual" email address without affecting the available quota of email addresses on the paid Mail Service.
• It does not store any received messages, it is impossible to access and view them, or to restore or view the logs of messages that have passed through.
• It is solely intended to redirect incoming emails to one or more (max. 10 ‍users per redirection) other actually existing addresses.
• Recipients registered to receive redirected emails must first accept their addition for the redirection to work (see point 3 below).
• Emails considered as spam by Infomaniak will not be redirected (bounce to the sender — and refer to this other guide regarding possible Gmail to Gmail redirections).

Number of possible “virtual” redirections

⚠ Redirection addresses that can be created, per available address (depending on the Mail Service quota):

For example: Mail Service paid for 10 addresses = 200 redirection addresses available

Create the address intended to redirect emails

1. Open the redirection address management page

To access the feature:

1. Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
2. Click directly on the name assigned to the product in question.

4. Click the button to add the valid email address to the table below.
5. Delete, if necessary, an address added to the table by clicking on the trash can icon.
6. Click the Create button:
   
    

3. Confirm the addition as a redirection recipient

The receiving addresses entered in the table automatically receive an email requesting confirmation of the addition.

• The user must click on the link in the email to validate the addition.
• As long as the addition is not confirmed, the status Pending will remain displayed next to the destination address (visible if you modify the redirection address - read below).

Modify or delete the redirection

You cannot rename a redirection address after its creation. But to modify the list of redirection recipients, or resend a confirmation request, or delete the redirection email address:

1. Once on the redirection page:
2. Recipients who have not yet confirmed their addition are preceded by a gray icon.
3. Click on the action menu ⋮ to the right of the redirection address concerned:
   

From this action menu ⋮ click on:

1. Modify to add recipient email addresses:
   1. Click on the button to add the valid email address to the table below.
   2. Save the modification.
   3. Otherwise, click on the trash icon to remove a recipient email address from the list.
   4. The acceptance status details are displayed to the right of the recipient address.
2. Resend to immediately request by email that the user accept their addition to the list (a second reminder will only be possible after 24 hours, otherwise the button remains grayed out).

This guide is for you if you wish to change your current email provider and host your emails with Infomaniak.

Preamble

• To help you identify the offer best suited to your needs, refer to this other guide.

Moving your email to Infomaniak

To avoid losing any messages and experiencing any interruptions:

• Follow the links in order as they will open in a new tab in your browser, and return to this main guide after each completed step.
• If necessary, you can also migrate your:
  • Calendars
  • Contacts
  • and other data

You order a Mail Service only

Below are the different steps to migrate your mail service to Infomaniak securely.

Step 1: It is necessary to order the mail service by following this guide.

At the time of ordering, you can choose to transfer the domain name at the same time or to order the mail service alone.

You can then import the content of your old addresses to Infomaniak by following this guide.

Step 2: Once the addresses are configured and your old content imported, you will be able to link your external domain name to your Infomaniak Mail Service to start receiving emails at Infomaniak. You will need to follow the chapter "Link the external domain to your Mail Service" of this guide.

You will find here the MX / SPF to add in the DNS zone of your domain name:

SPF
Type: TXT
Host: Leave blank
Target: v=spf1 include:spf.infomaniak.ch -all

MX
Priority: 5
Host: Leave blank
Target: mta-gw.infomaniak.ch (for Gandi, it is necessary to add a point at the end "mta-gw.infomaniak.ch." )

Step 3 (optional): When everything is working correctly and if it has not already been done, you can transfer your domain name by following this guide.

Once the transfer is initiated, you should have access to the DNS zone of your domain name on the Infomaniak Manager. You can therefore check…

1. … in the DNS diagnostic if there are any corrections to be made and, if necessary, add the DNS entries that may be required for other services used with your domain name (newsletter or other).

2. … in the global security tab of your mail service if DKIM is properly activated.

If emails arrived during the migration with your previous provider, you can re-import the contents of your old addresses with Infomaniak by following this guide (duplicates are managed).

You order a kSuite

Below are the different steps to migrate your external mail service to an Infomaniak kSuite securely.

Step 1: Order kSuite from this page.

Once the order is completed, access your kSuite and add your domain name to it.

You can then create your email addresses and even import the content of your old addresses by following this guide.

Step 2: Once the addresses are configured and your old content imported, you will be able to link your external domain name to your Infomaniak Mail Service to start receiving emails at Infomaniak. You will need to follow the chapter "Link the external domain to your Mail Service" of this guide.

You will find here the MX / SPF to add in the DNS zone of your domain name:

SPF
Type: TXT
Host: Leave blank
Target: v=spf1 include:spf.infomaniak.ch -all

MX
Priority: 5
Host: Leave blank
Target: mta-gw.infomaniak.ch (for Gandi, it is necessary to add a point at the end "mta-gw.infomaniak.ch." )

Step 3 (optional): When everything is working correctly and if it has not already been done, you can transfer your domain name by following this guide.

Once the transfer is initiated, you should have access to the DNS zone of your domain name on the Infomaniak Manager. You can therefore check…

1. … in the DNS diagnostic if there are any corrections to be made and, if necessary, add the DNS entries that may be required for other services used with your domain name (newsletter or other).

2. … in the global security tab of your mail service if DKIM is properly activated.

If emails arrived during the migration with your previous provider, you can re-import the contents of your old addresses with Infomaniak by following this guide (duplicates are managed).

This guide explains how to display the folders of your Infomaniak mailbox with a mail software/client, using the IMAP protocol.

Preamble

• The different generic folders are created by Mail Infomaniak upon the very first connection to the interface.
• It may therefore happen that some IMAP mail software/clients do not show any folders if no connection has been made beforehand on Mail.
• And if they are indeed present in Mail, it may still happen that some folders do not appear on your IMAP-configured mail software/client.

Force the synchronization of IMAP folders...

...on Microsoft Outlook

It may happen in some cases, after having configured an Infomaniak address in the Outlook mail software/client, that some folders do not appear. It is necessary in this case to check the synchronization with the subscription folders in Outlook:

This guide explains how to automatically transfer new messages from an existing email address, managed by Infomaniak, to the email account of your choice, even if it is completely external to Infomaniak, while keeping (or not) the messages.

Preamble

• The emails detected by Infomaniak as spam…
  1. … ARE REDIRECTED when all redirection addresses are hosted by Infomaniak.‍
  2. … ARE NOT REDIRECTED AT ALL as soon as one of the redirection addresses is not hosted by Infomaniak (even if all other redirection addresses are).
• Emails not considered as spam ARE REDIRECTED, including to Gmail but beware in this case of this particular situation.

⚠  Redirection addresses that can be added per email address :

Add a redirection from the Infomaniak Web Mail app

Prerequisites

• Have permission to manage redirections: if you had been invited to the Infomaniak Web App Mail (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail) to manage your address, it is possible that the Mail Service manager has removed this right from their admin account.

To access your Infomaniak mailbox:

1. Click here to access the Infomaniak Mail Web app (online service ksuite.infomaniak.com/mail).
2. Click on the Settings icon ‍ at the top right of the interface.
3. Check or select the email address concerned in the drop-down menu of the left sidebar.

Delete email redirections

You cannot apply the redirection service to multiple email addresses of a domain in a single operation. However, the reverse is possible and you will therefore be able to select all the addresses of a Mail Service and remove their possible redirection:

This guide explains how to create a template for the sorting/filtering tool (conditions that allow you to automatically classify your emails based on certain criteria) for all your mailboxes on the Infomaniak Web app Mail (online service mail.infomaniak.com).

Preamble

• A template allows you to create the neutral base of a tool that can then be used by multiple users of the same Infomaniak Mail service, or even personalized according to the person who will use it.
• In the case of a rule template, the creator of the template chooses the condition(s) that will trigger the action, but it is up to the end user, from their Mail, to define the action to be performed (e.g., moving to a specific folder) when they add a rule based on the existing template.
• For privacy reasons, it is not possible to apply sorting rules to multiple email addresses at the same time.
• You can also hide a template so that it is no longer used.

Create a sorting rule template

To create a template:

1. Click here to access the management of your product on the Infomaniak Manager (need help?).
2. Click directly on the name assigned to the product in question.
3. Click on Global Configuration in the left sidebar.
4. Click on the Rules tab.
5. Click on Add a rule template:
   
6. Give a name to the template.
7. Define the condition for which the end user can choose the action to trigger.
   • The different conditions available for sorting filters are presented in this other guide.
8. If the Make visible option is enabled (during creation or also possible afterwards), the rule models created will be suggested to users of email addresses that go to their FILTERS AND RULES section.
9. Press Add the model:
   
   • When the user of an email address from the Mail Service on which the rule model has been defined goes to the configuration of their sorting rules, they will be able to choose the model as a basis for work, which will save them from having to reconfigure a potentially complex configuration, and simply choose the action to be performed:
     

This guide explains how to block email addresses or entire domains to stop receiving unwanted messages, or conversely allow addresses to bypass your Infomaniak email's anti-spam filter, thus always receiving their messages.

Preamble

• In addition to the Infomaniak anti-spam filter which eliminates the majority of unwanted emails as it evolves, Infomaniak offers two distinct lists that you can fill out as you wish:
  1. blocked senders:
     • blocked emails and domains (blacklist) are then directly treated as spam…
  2. allowed senders:
     • allowed senders and domains (whitelist) will no longer be filtered by the anti-spam filter…
     • the list of allowed senders is only active on the original recipient of each message; if the message is addressed to abc@domain.xyz and then redirected to def@domain.xyz, the anti-spam filter and the list of allowed senders must be configured for the address abc.
• These lists are specific to the email address on which the operation is performed, but a Mail Service administrator can also apply these lists to the entire Mail Service via the Global Configuration of a Mail Service.
• These lists are also automatically filled based on your actions on emails at the anti-spam filter level.

Formats that can be used

Replace the example domain (the-spam-domain.xyz) with the one that is bothering you and that you want to send directly to the Spam folder:

Block a specific email address

john.example@the-spam-domain.xyz

Block all email addresses from a specific domain

*@the-spam-domain.xyz

Block certain email addresses from a specific domain

*example@the-spam-domain.xyz or john*@the-spam-domain.xyz

Block all incoming emails
