    I'm trying to setup an IMAP trigger in N8N using a mail account on my Cloudron machine.

    In Cloudron, I've added the new mail account to my user and generated an app password for it (n8n@domain.com).

    I've confirmed that I can login via. IMAP remotely from another device:

    server: my.erratic.cloud
    port: 993
    username: n8n@erratic.cloud
    password: [app password]

    Now, in N8N I've added a new set of IMAP account credentials:

    user: n8n@domain.com
    password: [app password]
    host: my.erratic.cloud
    port: 993
    SSL/TLS: yes
    Self-signed: no

    However, any attempt to use/save those credentials is met with a timeout error.

    Couldn’t connect with these settings 
    Timed out while connecting to server*
    

    Any hints would be appreciated.

      @OneWheelGeek If you open a n8n web terminal, are you able to telnet my.domain.com 993 ? Does it connect ?

        @girish I'm just going to hang my head in shame now 🙂

        This box is behind NAT and, apparently, I'd messed up my firewall rules.

        Thank you for the shell/telnet suggestion though. That was helpful.

        Sorry for wasting your time!
