Note that domain sharing is limited to five users and three addresses per user. MX records have to be updated before any mailbox can be added.<\/p>\n<h3>Adding a Business Email to Apple Mail<\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. macOS:\u00a0<\/strong>Mail &gt; Add Account &gt; Other Mail Account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. iOS\/iPadOS:<\/strong>\u00a0Settings &gt; Mail &gt; Accounts &gt; Add Account.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Enter name, email, password, and account description.<\/li>\n<li>If auto-discovery fails, select IMAP and fill in incoming\/outgoing servers and ports.<\/li>\n<li>Use an app password if 2FA blocks direct sign-in.<\/li>\n<li>To keep settings synced, use the same Apple ID across all devices.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3>Troubleshooting Apple Mail<\/h3>\n<p>Frequent hiccups include domain verification errors and rejected SMTP sends. Double-check DNS\/MX records, confirm IMAP is enabled, and ensure you\u2019re using an app password. If mail syncs but calendars do not, remember IMAP alone will not carry calendar\/contacts. Exchange or CalDAV\/CardDAV is required.<\/p>\n<h2>How to Set Up Gmail and Google Workspace: A Step-by-Step Guide<\/h2>\n<p>Gmail\u2019s familiar interface and strong search make it a favourite for many teams. Configuration differs slightly between personal Gmail and Workspace domains.<\/p>\n<h3>Adding a Mailbox to Gmail (Mobile and Web Clients)<\/h3>\n<p><strong>1. Web:\u00a0<\/strong>Settings &gt; See all settings &gt; Accounts and Import &gt; Add a mail account.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2. Mobile:\u00a0<\/strong>Gmail app &gt; Add another account &gt; Other or Google Workspace.<\/p>\n<p>Follow the OAuth screen for Google accounts or enter manual IMAP settings for external mailboxes. For Workspace admins, add users in the Admin Console and update MX records before instructing staff to connect.<\/p>\n<h3>SMTP\/IMAP settings, OAuth2 and app passwords<\/h3>\n<p>Standard Gmail settings &#8211;<\/p>\n<p><strong>IMAP server:<\/strong>\u00a0imap.gmail.com, SSL, port 993<\/p>\n<p><strong>SMTP server:<\/strong>\u00a0smtp.gmail.com, TLS 587 or SSL 465<\/p>\n<p>Google enforces 2FA. For clients without OAuth2 support, create an app password in the Google Account security page. Workspace admins can allow or block less-secure app passwords in the Admin Console.<\/p>\n<h3>Gmail Troubleshooting<\/h3>\n<p>The most common blocks are security-related. Approve the \u201cblocked sign-in\u201d alert in Gmail, enable IMAP in Settings, ensure the correct port\/encryption, and verify that app passwords are permitted by the admin policy.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"color: #008080;\"><strong>Also Read:<\/strong><\/span>\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.crazydomains.com.au\/learn\/google-workspace-integration\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Integrating Google Workspace with Your Domain Email<\/a><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<h2>Security &amp; Deliverability Best Practices<\/h2>\n<p>Email is a top attack vector, making proactive security non-negotiable.<\/p>\n<h3>Authentication, 2FA and Modern Auth<\/h3>\n<p>Mandate two-factor authentication for all accounts.
