        How did you check if IMAP is working or not? Are you not able to connect with your mail client?

          @girish I sent an email via another email to the address and it timed out after 44 hours.

            @edapm Ah, incoming mail is still SMTP. IMAP is used just by mail clients to get emails for users.

            I see that I cannot connect to port 25. This is why incoming mail does not work. Where is your server hosted? Do you have a cloud firewall in the front? If so, you have to open up incoming port 25. Please see https://docs.cloudron.io/security/#inbound-ports for the various ports you need to open in the firewall.

              Hi @girish, yes I'm using Azure so port 25 is blocked, I cannot unblock it.

                @edapm Outbound port 25 is usually blocked (this is why you need a mailgun relay). But incoming port 25 is usually not blocked and this is something you setup in your azure firewall. This is the same as what you did for port 22/80/443. Just put 25 there as well.

                    I'd seriously consider anything other than Azure / AWS / GCP if you value your costs and time. So many faster, easier and cheaper solutions. Let us know if you have specific requirements as there's a ton of alternative and happier hosting experience among this community.

                      Hi @marcusquinn, yeah I only use Azure because I get free credits via the GitHub Developer Pack. Do you know any good (preferably free) alternatives?

                        @edapm Personally, I'm all-in with Hetzner, not free but the best value for features I've found, particularly having network DDoS protection as standard. Others recommended include Contabo and Scaleway.

                        If you're getting free (inclusive) stuff from Microsoft then I suppose that's decent. Personally, I'm all GitLab, so anything GitHub is second-choice.

                        I guess there's nothing truly free, including your time, but those are the options I recommend, otherwise it's support tickets to Azure and hope for their ability to allow for port needs.
