Access under Firewall

Alternate usernames

You need to log in with your full FastMail.FM username, i.e username@your.domain. You must use the username you used to sign up your account, not any aliases or virtual aliases.

Because some software has difficulty with the @ symbol you can use any of these alternatives:

  • username@your.domain
  • username#your.domain
  • username/your.domain
  • username=your.domain
  • Firewall access

FastMail.FM has a special proxy system whereby you can access each service (POP, IMAP, SMTP, etc) through any port number. The server names are:

  • IMAP: imap.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • IMAP/SSL: imaps.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • IMAP (alt namespace): imapalt.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • IMAP/SSL (alt namespace): imapalts.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • POP: pop.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • POP/SSL: pops.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • SMTP: smtp.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • SMTP/SSL: smtps.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • LDAP: ldap.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • LDAP/SSL: ldaps.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • XMPP: chat.proxy.messagingengine.com
  • XMPP/SSL: chats.proxy.messagingengine.com

If you use these server names, you can use any port to access these services. Commonly open ports are 80, 21, 25 and 443.
