This guide concerns notifications that can be received with the mobile app Infomaniak Mail (app for iOS/Android smartphone or tablet).
To be notified according to the specific email address
The Infomaniak Mail mobile app allows you to manage multiple email addresses and you can only receive notifications for some of your email addresses and not for others.
To get into the application notification settings, read point C of this other guide.
Solve a problem...
... on iOS
Check in the Infomaniak Mail mobile app settings that notifications are enabled for the email address in question:
... on Android
On Samsung devices with One UI 6.1 and higher, the system setting screen for notifications no longer allows you by default to specify which of your email addresses should cause a notification.
The solution is to enable the option "Manage notification categories for each application" from the main Android notifications page, by first clicking on "Advanced settings" at the bottom of the window.
Then go back to the Infomaniak app notifications page and you can tap the notification categories to find the specific notification choice by email address.
Receive all notifications
If you have authorized notifications of the application on your mobile device, you will receive a notification for each new message that arrives.
Solve a problem...
If you see a new message coming into your inbox, but it didn't trigger any notification on your device, the reasons can be multiple.
- Start by opening the app to make sure it works, update it if necessary.
- Open another application or turn off the display of the device (if the Infomaniak Mail app is open, in the foreground, screen turned on, the device may not issue any notification).
- Send a new test message to your email address to trigger a notification.
- Is the test message in the inbox? Indeed, a spam message or other folder may not issue any notification.
... on Android
- Did you wait for tens of minutes? Indeed, quick notifiers (push type) require going through a Google service to work, but some devices that do not go through Google services (such as Fairphone), notifications can arrive at much more spaced intervals.

This guide concerns Greylisting, a protective measure that is implemented on Infomaniak email servers.
Operation of Greylisting
Greylisting is a technique used by Infomaniak email servers (among others) to fight spam. It is based on the principle of temporarily delaying the delivery of an electronic message to verify the legitimacy of the sender. This method exploits the fact that spam servers often send emails without complying with message retransmission standards.
1. Initial reception
When an email server receives an e-mail, it notes three elements:
- the sender's IP address
- the sender's e-mail address
- the e-mail address of the recipient
2. Temporary refusal
The server temporarily refuses the delivery of the email and sends a temporary error message (code 4xx). This means that the message is not permanently rejected, but that the sending server must try again to send it later.
3. Retest
The legitimate email servers are programmed to try to deliver the messages again after a certain period of time. Spam servers, on the other hand, often do not bother to try again.
4. Acceptance
During the retest, if the e-mail comes from the same trio (IP of the sender, address of the sender, address of the recipient) previously noted, the message is accepted and delivered to the recipient.
This guide details the limits of your email at the size level ( weight message size and the size of the message disk space) set up as part of the Infomaniak email offers and guide you to view the storage used.
Limit of the size of the mailbox
- The total volume of your e-mails is unlimited, whether it is in number of messages or in place that it represents on the storage space.
- Only the supply my kSuite may not exceed 20 GB of storage.
Limit of the size of each e-mail
- The maximum size of an e-mail sent and received is 200 MB (this includes both the size of the attachment and the text and image(s) present in the e-mail).
- With the Web app Mail Infomaniak (online service) mail.infomaniak.com) the size limit of the attachments is 25 MB, beyond a link Swisstransfer is generated.
Limit of storage time of messages
- There's no such thing as no time limit for storing messages in the inbox or in subfolders, with the exception of: an e-mail that would be deleted, or reported as spam, or moved manually/automatically in the folder "Trash" or "Spam" (or one of its equivalent names as "Elements deleted", "Erased Messages", "Indesirable Mail", including spelling in another language, "Junk" e.g. - non-exhaustive list)... In this case, the e-mail is automatically deleted after 30 days no possibility of recovery.
- The backups made by Infomaniak have a period of detention.
- It is not recommended to keep more than 4,000 to 5,000 messages per folder (reduce the indexing of messages). It is therefore advisable to move your messages to subfolders, which also facilitates their consultation. You can do it. manually or to put in place automatic sorting rules.
Show total size from the Mail Infomaniak Web app

- Click here to access the web app Mail Infomaniak (online service) mail.infomaniak.com).

Other courier limits
A problem, though?
In case your recipient's e-mail address is not hosted by Infomaniak, you may receive a error message at the time of sending the e-mail. This can take various forms, e.g. Recipient address rejected : 5.2.2 Over quota 554 5.0.0 Service unavailable
.
This may indicate that your recipient's box is full and can no longer receive email or that the email you are trying to send is too large.
In this case you need to contact your correspondent to ask him to empty his box or ask him for the size limit of the messages you can send him.
