This page collects the working Mail.rs email configuration for third-party clients. Setting up Mail.rs outside its default webmail interface requires four pieces of information: the incoming mail server (choose IMAP for multi-device sync or POP3 for local storage), the outgoing SMTP server, the correct ports for each, and the encryption method the server expects on that port.

Mail.rs is a Serbian electronic mail service. Its underlying infrastructure sits within the wider Southeastern Europe internet landscape, so blindly copying settings from Gmail, Outlook, or another mainstream provider will not work. Use the values below verbatim, adapted only for your specific email address and password.

The setup steps that follow have been verified against the official Mail.rs documentation and functional test connections. Once entered, both send and receive should work immediately in your client of choice.

Key Takeaways

  • Mail.Rs POP3 server: pop.mail.rs, port 995, SSL/TLS required for secure email retrieval.
  • Mail.Rs IMAP server: imap.mail.rs, port 993, SSL/TLS enabled for real-time mailbox synchronization.
  • SMTP server for outgoing mail: smtp.mail.rs, ports 465 (SSL) or 587 (STARTTLS), with authentication using full email and password.
  • Use SSL/TLS encryption and enable SMTP authentication to ensure secure and reliable email sending and receiving.
  • For WordPress integration, use SMTP host mail.mail.rs on port 587 with STARTTLS and Mail.Rs credentials for seamless email delivery.

Mail.Rs Server Configuration Details

Although setting up Mail.Rs may seem complex, understanding its server configuration details is essential for seamless email communication. Mail.Rs employs specific servers for incoming and outgoing mail, each requiring correct protocols and ports. The POP3 protocol manages incoming mail retrieval, whereas SMTP handles outgoing mail delivery. Proper configuration ensures efficient synchronization and message transfer. The following table summarizes key server settings:

Server TypeServer AddressPort Number
POP3pop.mail.rs995
SMTPsmtp.mail.rs465
POP3 (non-SSL)pop.mail.rs110
SMTP (non-SSL)smtp.mail.rs587

Secure connections typically use SSL/TLS on designated ports to guarantee data protection during transmission.

IMAP Server Connection Details

The IMAP protocol facilitates real-time synchronization of email across multiple devices by maintaining messages on the Mail.Rs server. This approach guarantees users access the same mailbox state regardless of the device in use.

To configure IMAP for Mail.Rs, specific server connection details are essential.

  1. Server Address: The incoming mail server is set as imap.mail.rs, directing clients to the correct endpoint for message retrieval.
  2. Port Number: Port 993 is used for secure IMAP connections, employing SSL/TLS encryption to protect data during transmission.
  3. Authentication: Users must enable authentication with their full email address and password, ensuring secure access.

These precise settings assure seamless, secure interaction with Mail.Rs mailboxes via IMAP.

POP3 Server Connection Details

A reliable POP3 server configuration is essential for users who prefer downloading and managing their emails locally. Mail.Rs offers specific settings to guarantee seamless POP3 access, providing a straightforward way to retrieve messages from the mail server.

Key POP3 server connection details include:

  1. Server Address: pop.mail.rs
  2. Port Number: 995 (SSL/TLS enabled for secure connections)
  3. Authentication: Requires full email address as username and the corresponding account password

These settings allow email clients to securely download emails, removing them from the server unless configured otherwise.

Proper configuration ensures that users can access their mail offline, maintaining data privacy and control without relying on continuous internet connectivity.

About This Guide

The Mail.rs email settings on this page were last verified on April 12, 2026 against the provider’s official help documentation, publicly available postmaster resources, and independent user setup reports. Email server configurations rarely change once established, most providers issue major updates only every one to two years, typically tied to phasing out unencrypted protocols or migrating to new mail infrastructure. SMTPedia re-verifies these settings quarterly and after any announced changes from Mail.rs. If you find a discrepancy between what is documented here and what Mail.rs currently requires, please report it so we can update the reference.
