IMAP, or internet Message Access Protocol, is a protocol used by email clients to retrieve and manage messages from a mail server. Unlike POP3, which downloads emails to a local device and typically removes them from the server, IMAP allows users to view and organize their emails while keeping them stored on the server. This enables seamless access to emails across multiple devices, as changes made in one location (such as reading or deleting messages) are reflected everywhere. IMAP operates over TCP/IP and typically uses port 143 for unencrypted connections and port 993 for secure connections.
IMAP port is the port number the IMAP protocol uses to transfer data. The standard IMAP Port number is 143
The default port number for the Internet Message Access Protocol (IMAP) is 143. When using IMAP over SSL/TLS for secure communication, the default port number is 993.
Port number of SMTP is 25 and of IMAP is 143. (These are the standard port numbers used)
To set up IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol), you need to first have an email account with a provider that supports IMAP. Then, in your email client or application, go to the settings to add a new account and select the option for IMAP. You'll typically need to enter the incoming mail server (e.g., imap.example.com), your email address, password, and possibly the outgoing mail server settings. Once configured, your email client will sync your emails and folders using IMAP.
Internet Message Access Protocol(IMAP) was developed by Mark Crispin in 1986. It is a protocol for email retrieval and storage as an alternative to POP.
