SMTP + IMAP

Bring the mailbox you host. Keep the same Helpeto workflow.

If a provider is not Gmail or Microsoft 365, connect its outgoing SMTP service and incoming IMAP mailbox. Helpeto validates both sides, encrypts credentials, and uses the same ticket, reply, attachment, and team workflow.

01

TEST

Diagnose the connection before saving it

The setup flow distinguishes DNS lookup, network connection, TLS, and authentication failures instead of clearing the form. Host, port, secure mode, username, and server response details stay visible so administrators can correct the exact problem.

  • SMTP and IMAP tested independently
  • Same-credentials shortcut
  • TLS and port guidance
  • Form values retained after errors
02

SYNC

Fetch only eligible mail and mark processed messages

IMAP synchronization focuses on unread or newly eligible messages, records source identifiers, and marks successfully processed mail to reduce repeated scans. Permanently deleted tickets retain a source tombstone so manual refresh does not recreate them.

03

SEND

Reply through your own domain and mail server

SMTP delivery preserves the connected sender identity, recipients, CC, thread headers, HTML, inline images, and attachments. The mailbox remains yours; Helpeto supplies the operational layer.
