What is server adress?
A server address is like the "home address" for your Email provider's server. It tells your Email app where to send and receive your Emails. For example, Gmail’s server address for outgoing Emails is smtp.gmail.com, and for Outlook, it’s smtp-mail.outlook.com
In short, it’s the specific location your Email app connects to so you can send and receive messages.

Add the server port 587
The server port is almost always the same for every Email provider.
But it’s best to check your email provider’s recommended settings to confirm the correct port and encryption method.

Add your whole Email address (like [email protected])
