Incoming mail server pop3 address
A POP3 (Post Office Protocol version 3) address is used to retrieve email from a mail server. Here's a breakdown of the format:
pop3.example.com:110
pop3
: The protocol used to connect to the mail server (in this case, POP3).example.com
: The domain name of the mail server.:110
: The port number used for the POP3 connection (in this case, port 110 is the default).
When you enter a POP3 address, you're telling your email client (e.g., Outlook, Thunderbird, or a mobile app) to connect to the specified mail server using the POP3 protocol and retrieve your email.
Here are some examples of POP3 addresses:
pop.gmail.com:110
(Gmail's POP3 server)pop.outlook.com:110
(Outlook.com's POP3 server)pop.example.com:110
(Your company's or organization's POP3 server)
Keep in mind that some email providers may use a different port number or a different protocol (e.g., IMAP) for retrieving email. Be sure to check your email provider's documentation or settings to determine the correct POP3 address and port number to use.
