Namecheap IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) settings are the incoming mail server settings to connect your Namecheap email to an app like Outlook, Apple Mail, or Gmail.
How it works
Namecheap uses the PrivateEmail platform. The IMAP settings usually are:
- Server: mail.privateemail.com
- Port: 993 (with SSL)
- Username: full email
- Password: your login password
IMAP keeps your mail synced across devices and stores messages on the server, not just locally.
Tips:
- Use IMAP over POP for better syncing
- Make sure your DNS records are properly set
Use the correct port and encryption
