You can read and send your custom domain email on any Android phone. The easiest way is the Gmail app, which is pre-installed on most Android phones and supports other email accounts via IMAP. The steps are similar in Samsung Email, Outlook and other apps.
Settings you'll need
| Server | Port | Security | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Incoming (IMAP) | mail.maililo.com | 993 | SSL/TLS |
| Outgoing (SMTP) | mail.maililo.com | 465 | SSL/TLS |
Username for both: your full email address. Password: your mailbox password.
Set up with the Gmail app
- Open Gmail, tap your profile picture (top right) → Add another account.
- Choose Other.
- Enter your email address and tap Manual setup.
- Choose Personal (IMAP).
- Enter your password and tap Next.
- Incoming server settings:
- Username: your full email address
- Server:
mail.maililo.com - Port:
993, Security type: SSL/TLS
- Outgoing server settings:
- Require sign-in: on
- Username: your full email address
- SMTP server:
mail.maililo.com - Port:
465, Security type: SSL/TLS
- Choose how often to sync and whether to get notifications, then tap Next.
- Give the account a name and enter your name as it should appear on sent mail.
Menu names can vary slightly between Android versions and phone brands.
Set up with Samsung Email
- Open Samsung Email → menu → settings gear → Add account → Other.
- Enter your email and password, then tap Manual setup → IMAP account.
- Enter the same incoming and outgoing settings as above.
Test your account
Send yourself a message from another account, then reply from your phone. Check that the reply arrives and appears in the Sent folder.
Troubleshooting
- "Couldn't open connection to server": check the server name is exactly
mail.maililo.comand the port matches the security type (993 SSL/TLS incoming, 465 SSL/TLS outgoing). - "Authentication failed": use your full email address as the username, and re-type the password — autocorrect often capitalizes the first letter.
- Mail doesn't appear automatically: check sync settings and that battery saver isn't restricting the mail app.
- You changed your password: open the account settings in the app and update it for both incoming and outgoing servers.
