While connecting your email account using the SMTP and IMAP method, if you come across the error "Email not found", let's see how you can fix this easily:
In some cases, there are chances that you enter the wrong email ID or password which can lead to this issue. Moreover, if you are using a different username for the email account, make sure it is entered correctly and verified by your email service provider.

To use multifactor authentication, you will need to use an app password in your email settings instead of your regular password. To update the app password, remove the old one and create a new one in your email account settings. Note that the app password does not expire, but your email service provider may stop authenticating it if it has been in use for a long time.
When connecting your email accounts with SMTP and IMAP, there are chances that the port number you are using might be wrong or not supported by the email service provider. Hence, make sure to verify your port number with the details shared by your email service provider. Moreover, using the correct encryption is also mandatory.
Generic port numbers with encryption type for SMTP: 25 (Encryption as "None"), 465 (SSL/TLS), 587 (TLS/None)
Generic port numbers with encryption type for IMAP: 143 (SSL/TLS), 993 (SSL/TLS)
There is a high chance that the firewall, DNS settings, or any security tools restrict you from successfully connecting your email account with TrulyInbox. To resolve this, you can contact your IT person / IT Administrator to ensure that TrulyInbox is allowed to connect your email account with SMTP and IMAP details.
Once you have verified all the settings as configured properly but are still not able to connect your email account, copy the error log by clicking on "Show error log" as shared in the screenshot below, and share it with your email service provider's support team to troubleshoot this further.
