Yandex emails configuration

Configure IMAP-based client

When using the IMAP protocol, the email client syncs with the server and saves the structure of folders in your mailbox. Messages that you send from the email client will be saved both on your computer and on the server, and you can access them from various devices.

Enable IMAP protocol before configuring your email client:

  1.  
    Open   → All settings.
  2.  
    Select Email clients.
  3.  
    Enable the From imap.yandex.ru server via IMAP option.
  4.  
    Save the changes.

To set up an email client for the IMAP protocol, you need to specify the following:

Incoming mail
  •  
    mail server address — imap.yandex.com
  •  
    connection security — SSL
  •  
    port — 993
Outgoing mail
  •  
    mail server address — smtp.yandex.com
  •  
    connection security — SSL
  •  
    port — 465
Attention. We do not recommend using your provider's mail server for sending mail in your name on Yandex.

IMAP support will be enabled automatically the first time you log in to the mail program.

Configure POP3-based client

When using POP3, all messages from the folders that you select in the menu Settings → Email clients will be saved by the mail client on your computer in the Inbox. If necessary, you can set up filters in the email client to automatically move messages to the desired folders. Messages you send will only be saved on your computer.

Note. When you download email from the server over POP3, Yandex.Mail automatically saves a copy of each message, but you can delete them from the web interface. To remove email using an email client, use IMAP.

Enable POP3 protocol before configuring your email client:

  1.  
    Open   → All settings.
  2.  
    Select Email clients.
  3.  
    Enable the From pop.yandex.ru server via POP3 option.
  4.  
    Save the changes.

To set up a mail client for the POP3 protocol, you must specify the following:

Incoming mail
  •  
    mail server address — pop.yandex.com
  •  
    connection security — SSL
  •  
    port — 995
Outgoing mail
  •  
    mail server address — smtp.yandex.com
  •  
    connection security — SSL
  •  
    port — 465
