Here are some common mail servers and their corresponding ports:

SMTP (Simple Mail Transfer Protocol)

• Port 25: The default port for SMTP, used for sending emails.
• Port 587: An alternative port for SMTP, often used for sending emails from mobile devices or webmail clients.
• Port 2525: Another alternative port for SMTP, sometimes used for sending emails from applications or scripts.

POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3)

• Port 110: The default port for POP3, used for retrieving emails from a mail server.
• Port 995: An alternative port for POP3, often used for retrieving emails over a secure connection (SSL/TLS).

IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol)

• Port 143: The default port for IMAP, used for retrieving emails from a mail server.
• Port 993: An alternative port for IMAP, often used for retrieving emails over a secure connection (SSL/TLS).

Other mail servers

• Microsoft Exchange: Port 25, 587, or 2525 for SMTP; Port 110, 995, or 143 for POP3/IMAP.
• Google Workspace (formerly G Suite): Port 25, 587, or 2525 for SMTP; Port 993 for IMAP.
• Microsoft Outlook: Port 25, 587, or 2525 for SMTP; Port 110, 995, or 143 for POP3/IMAP.

To check the mail server settings for a specific email account, you can:

1. Check your email client's settings: Look for the "Settings" or "Account" menu in your email client, and check the "Incoming Mail Server" and "Outgoing Mail Server" settings.
2. Check your email provider's website: Look for the "Settings" or "Account" section on your email provider's website, and check the "Mail Server" or "SMTP" settings.
3. Use a mail server tester tool: There are many online tools available that can help you test your mail server settings, such as Mail-Tester or Port25.

Remember to replace the placeholders with your actual email account information:

• Username: Your email address (e.g., [your_email_address]@example.com)
• Password: Your email account password
• Mail Server: The mail server address (e.g., mail.example.com)
• Port: The port number used for the mail server (e.g., 25, 587, 2525, 110, 995, 143, or 993)

Example:

• SMTP: smtp.example.com on port 587 with username your_email_address and password your_email_password
• POP3: pop3.example.com on port 110 with username your_email_address and password your_email_password
• IMAP: imap.example.com on port 143 with username your_email_address and password your_email_password

Please note that some email providers may require additional settings or authentication methods, such as OAuth or two-factor authentication.
