Connect Davnode to iOS Mail

This guide will help you set up your Davnode email account on an iPhone or iPad using the default Mail app.

Prerequisites

Before you begin, ensure you have:

We recommend to always use an app password for connecting mail clients.

If you are setting this up manually or need to verify your ports, use the following settings:

Setting	Protocol	Hostname	Port	Security
Incoming	IMAP	`mail.davnode.com`	`993`	SSL/TLS
Outgoing	SMTP	`mail.davnode.com`	`465`	SSL/TLS
Outgoing alternative	SMTP	`mail.davnode.com`	`8465`	SSL/TLS
Outgoing alternative	SMTP	`mail.davnode.com`	`587`	STARTTLS

Note: Your username is your full Davnode email address.

Open the Settings app on your iPhone or iPad.
Tap on Mail > Accounts.
- (On older iOS versions, this may be under Passwords & Accounts).
Tap Add Account.
Select Other from the bottom of the list.
Tap Add Mail Account.
Enter your account details:
- Name: Your display name (e.g., John Doe).
- Email: Your full Davnode email address.
- Password: Your email password.
- Description: Davnode (or a name of your choice).
Tap Next.

Ensure the IMAP tab is selected at the top.

Tap Next to verify the account information. iOS will attempt to verify the connection.

If iOS fails to verify automatically, you may need to manually ensure the specific ports are set correctly.

Tap on your newly created Davnode account in Settings > Mail > Accounts.
Tap on Account (showing your email address).
For IMAP (Incoming):
- Go back and tap Advanced.
- Scroll to “Incoming Settings”.
- Ensure Server Port is set to 993.
- Ensure Use SSL is toggled ON.
For SMTP (Outgoing):
- Tap SMTP -> mail.davnode.com.
- Ensure Server Port is set to 465.
- Ensure Use SSL is toggled ON.

If port 465 is blocked on your network, try port 8465 with SSL/TLS or port 587 with STARTTLS.
