How do I connect my email client to the DIDO email server?

DIDO supports both POP3 and IMAP for reading messages and SMTP for sending.

When you use IMAP, messages are downloaded to your device but remain on the server. IMAP is useful when you want to access your email from more than one device. Use the following settings:
