This guide explains how to update the incoming and outgoing mail server settings for an existing LinkU email account in the Gmail app on an Android phone or tablet.
Before you begin
Have your full email address and email password available.
Use the same account type already configured in Gmail: IMAP or POP3.
Mail server settings
IMAP incoming server: imap.fusemail.net, port 993, SSL/TLS.
POP3 incoming server: pop.fusemail.net, port 995, SSL/TLS.
SMTP outgoing server: smtp.fusemail.net, port 587 with STARTTLS/TLS, or port 465 with SSL/TLS.
Username: your full email address.
Password: your email password.
Outgoing server sign-in/authentication: required.
Menu names can vary slightly by Android version and phone manufacturer.
Open the Gmail app and display your inbox.
Tap the three horizontal lines in the upper-left corner to open the navigation menu.
Scroll down and tap Settings.
Select the email account you want to update. Scroll to the Server settings section, where you will see Incoming settings and Outgoing settings.
Tap Incoming settings. If the account is IMAP, enter imap.fusemail.net, port 993, and choose SSL/TLS. If the account is POP3, enter pop.fusemail.net, port 995, and choose SSL/TLS. Confirm that the username is your full email address and enter your email password if prompted.
IMAP example:
POP3 example:
Tap Done or Next to save the incoming settings. Return to the account settings screen, then tap Outgoing settings.
Enter smtp.fusemail.net as the SMTP server. Turn on Require sign-in, confirm that the username is your full email address, and enter your email password. Use port 587 with STARTTLS or TLS. If that option is unavailable, use port 465 with SSL/TLS.
Tap Done or Next to save. Return to the inbox and send yourself a test message to confirm that sending and receiving both work.
If Gmail cannot validate the settings, re-enter the full email address and password, confirm that Require sign-in is enabled for the outgoing server, and check the server names and ports for typing errors.
