Titan is a business email service developed by Titan Inc, part of the Flock ecosystem (Bhavin Turakhia’s group behind Directi, Radix, and Zeta). It targets small businesses and freelancers with custom-domain email combined with productivity features like read receipts, follow-up reminders, and templates. Titan is resold under different branding by many hosting providers including GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger, Blacknight, MonoVM, DomainDiscount24, Fluccs, and Domain Central. To connect Titan to Outlook, Thunderbird, Apple Mail, or Gmail as a fetched account, use the settings below after completing two mandatory prerequisites.
Titan blocks IMAP and SMTP unless two settings are configured correctly first. Third-party app access is disabled by default on new Titan accounts and must be enabled in the security section of your Titan dashboard before any client can connect. Additionally, 2FA must be turned off for the mailbox, since Titan does not support app-specific passwords for IMAP or SMTP, and 2FA blocks non-web authentication entirely. Users who follow standard security guidance and enable 2FA will be locked out of every desktop and mobile mail client until they disable it. Reference: SMTP 550 5.7.1 guide.
Quick Reference: Titan Email Server Settings
Use these values verbatim. Encryption is required across all three protocols. If your Titan account was provisioned through an EU reseller (Blacknight, MonoVM, DomainDiscount24, Fluccs, or Domain Central), substitute the regional hostnames shown at the bottom of the table.
| Protocol | Server (US/default) | Port | Encryption | Authentication |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| SMTP (outgoing) | smtp.titan.email | 465 (SSL) or 587 (STARTTLS) | Required | Full email + password |
| IMAP (incoming, recommended) | imap.titan.email | 993 | SSL/TLS | Full email + password |
| POP3 (incoming, single device) | pop.titan.email | 995 | SSL/TLS | Full email + password |
EU-hosted subscribers replace with: imap0101.titan.email, pop0101.titan.email, smtp0101.titan.email | ||||
Mandatory Prerequisites Before Configuration
Before any IMAP or SMTP client will authenticate, complete these two steps in your Titan dashboard at app.titan.email.
Step 1: Enable third-party app access
- Sign in to your Titan dashboard.
- Open Settings and navigate to the Security section.
- Locate the Third-party app access or External email clients toggle.
- Turn it on. This authorizes IMAP, POP3, and SMTP connections to the mailbox.
Step 2: Disable 2FA on the mailbox
- In the same Security section, find Two-Factor Authentication.
- Turn 2FA off for this mailbox. Titan will require your current password to confirm.
- Once 2FA is off, IMAP and SMTP clients can authenticate with your regular Titan password.
This 2FA trade-off is a genuine security downgrade. If your organization’s threat model requires 2FA on all mailboxes, Titan may not be the right fit for accounts that also need desktop client access. Consider Zoho Mail or Fastmail instead, both of which support app-specific passwords that preserve 2FA on the main account while allowing IMAP/SMTP.
Titan SMTP Settings (Sending Mail)
SMTP handles outbound mail. Server smtp.titan.email on port 465 SSL is the primary configuration. Port 587 STARTTLS works as an alternative when 465 is blocked by a firewall or hosting environment. Authentication uses the full email address as username (you@yourdomain.com) and your Titan mailbox password.
Titan enforces per-mailbox sending limits typical of business email. Free plans have tighter caps than paid tiers. If you need to send transactional or marketing mail at scale, route those flows through a dedicated SMTP relay rather than the Titan mailbox.
Titan IMAP Settings (Recommended for Reading)
IMAP syncs folder state across every device. Server imap.titan.email on port 993 SSL/TLS. EU subscribers use imap0101.titan.email instead. Folder names appear in English by default (Sent, Drafts, Trash) and IMAP folder attributes let Outlook, Apple Mail, and Thunderbird map them correctly. Titan also exposes a CalDAV endpoint at dav.flockmail.com for calendar sync, which is worth configuring if you use Outlook or Apple Mail for both mail and calendar.
Titan POP3 Settings (Single-Device Access)
POP3 downloads mail to one device with no server-side sync. Use pop.titan.email on port 995 SSL/TLS. EU subscribers use pop0101.titan.email. Only pick POP3 if you specifically need offline archival on one device, otherwise IMAP is the correct default for business mailboxes accessed from multiple devices.

Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my Titan account is US-hosted or EU-hosted?
Check where you originally purchased the Titan subscription. If you bought through Titan directly at titan.email or through most US resellers (GoDaddy, Namecheap, Hostinger), your mailbox is on US infrastructure and you use the standard hostnames imap.titan.email, pop.titan.email, smtp.titan.email. If you bought through Blacknight (Ireland), MonoVM (UK), DomainDiscount24 (Germany), Fluccs (Australia), or Domain Central, your mailbox is on EU-hosted infrastructure and you use the 0101 variant hostnames. When in doubt, check the setup instructions provided by your reseller or contact their support.
Why does IMAP fail immediately after I enable 2FA on my Titan account?
Titan does not support app-specific passwords, so 2FA blocks all third-party authentication including IMAP, POP3, and SMTP. You have three options. First, turn 2FA off and rely on strong password practices for the mailbox. Second, use only the Titan webmail interface where 2FA works. Third, migrate to a business email provider that supports app passwords, such as Zoho Mail or Fastmail, if 2FA on IMAP is a security requirement.
Is Titan the same as Namecheap Private Email?
No, they are two different products. Titan Email is developed by Titan Inc and Namecheap simply resells it as one of several email options. Namecheap Private Email is Namecheap’s own product built on the Open-Xchange platform, hosted independently of Titan. Both are available for purchase on Namecheap’s site but they run on separate infrastructure with different server hostnames. If you bought Titan through Namecheap, use titan.email hostnames. If you bought Namecheap Private Email, use the privateemail.com hostnames documented separately.
How do I reset my Titan email password?
Sign in to the Titan control panel at app.titan.email. Navigate to Settings and select the mailbox you want to update. Use the password change flow, which requires your current password. If you lost access entirely, use the password recovery link on the sign-in page, which will send a recovery message to your backup email address. If you bought Titan through a reseller like GoDaddy, the password may need to be reset through the reseller’s dashboard instead.
How secure is Titan email in transit?
Titan enforces SSL/TLS on the secure ports (993, 995, 465) for client-to-server transport. Port 587 uses STARTTLS opportunistic encryption after connection. Server-to-server transport follows standard SMTP with STARTTLS. The trade-off for third-party client access is disabling 2FA on the mailbox as covered above, which is a real security concession. For end-to-end message encryption use S/MIME or PGP client-side, since Titan does not offer native end-to-end encryption. Related: SMTP connection guide.

About This Guide
The Titan Email settings on this page were last verified on August 5, 2026 against Titan’s official support portal at support.titan.email, reseller documentation from Blacknight and GoDaddy, 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 Titan or its resellers. If you find a discrepancy between what is documented here and what Titan currently requires, please report it so we can update the reference.
