✅ Done! Outlook will start synchronizing your emails. The first synchronization may take a few minutes depending on your mailbox size.
⚠️ Connection Error: If Outlook doesn't connect, verify that your domain is already pointing to PlatiniumHost and that the firewall is not blocking ports 993 and 465.
IMAP or POP3?
We recommend IMAP because it synchronizes your emails across all your devices. With POP3, emails are downloaded only to one computer and deleted from the server.
