IMAP and SMTP on My iPhone: Are IMAP and SMTP the Same?
IMAP and SMTP are different protocols often used together to send and receive emails. IMAP is used to retrieve emails from a server, while SMTP is used to send emails to a server. To use both protocols on your iPhone, you must set up your email account with IMAP and SMTP settings.

- Incoming Mail Server: imap.server.com
- Outgoing Mail Server: smtp.server.com
- Username: [email protected]
- Password: your password
Once you have entered the settings, tap Save and wait for the account to be verified.
