This guide explains how to copy the content of an Infomaniak email address (all email messages, folders, subfolders, in short, the entire structure of your mailbox) to another of your existing addresses at Infomaniak, thanks to the Infomaniak import tool!
Preamble
- This does not affect the content currently present in the address that will receive the content, nor the content of the source address whose content will be copied.
- Any duplicates are managed: identical content will only be copied once.
- It is possible to specify a second address to import during the same process.

This guide presents the email authentication mechanisms and ways to resolve the Sender Mismatch
error.
Preamble
- The "Sender Mismatch" error occurs when the address used to send an email does not match the authentication address used when connecting to the SMTP server.
- This error is related to two specific elements:
- the
Return-path
(also known as "envelope sender"), which is used by the mail server to handle returns and delivery errors, - and the
From
header, which is the sender's address visible to the recipient in the message.
- the
Resolve the Sender Mismatch error
Technically, when sending an email via an email software/client, you must authenticate using a username (= your email address) and a password.
If, after authentication, the sender address specified in the "From
" header or in the "Return-path
" is different from the address used for authentication, the Infomaniak server may consider this an attempt at spoofing. This inconsistency triggers the "Sender Mismatch" error.
To fix this error:
- Check that the email address used for sending is the one you authenticate with (or a valid alias).
- Do not change the
Return-path
address or theFrom
header to an unauthorized address (if necessary, refer to this other guide to test another email application or to correctly configure your current email software/client).
This guide explains how to connect the eM Client email application to an email address hosted by Infomaniak.
โ ๏ธ All the services offered by Infomaniak are 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 Terms and Conditions.
Prerequisites
- Create the address within my kSuite or on a Mail Service (Mail Service alone, or existing within a kSuite).
- Test the email password (do not confuse it with the one used to log in to the Infomaniak interface).
- Check on the Service Mail that the automatic diagnosis is correct.
Add the email address to the application
To configure the email application:
- Open the application and choose the desired mode, then click on Next:
- Enter the email address to attach and then click the Start button next to the field:
- Enter the email password and then click on Continue next to the field:
- Check the box and click on Yes:
- Check and complete the missing information:
- Choose the desired mode then click on Next:
- Check and complete the missing information:
- It is done, 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 = 465 (with SSL)
- Username = the full & complete email address ( ? )
- Password = the one assigned to the email address you want to access ( ? )
- Authentication required for sending emails:
- It is activated in the SMTP settings of your application.
- Check "use the same settings as the incoming server" or, depending on the software/email client, enter a username (= full & complete email address) and its password.
Some versions of eM Client incorrectly consider ports 993 and 465 as obsolete and you will then need to specify for IMAP tcp/143 STARTTLS
or tcp/993 SSL/TLS
and for SMTP tcp/587 STARTTLS
.
In case of trouble
There is no need to contact Infomaniak Support if your email address works well outside of the application. The most common error involves using an incorrect password. Familiarize yourself with the solutions provided in this other guide regarding email in general.
