Setup Guide: FastMail
To configure FastMail with Attachment Bot, use an app-specific password for secure connectivity.
Generate an App-Specific Password
FastMail recommends using an app-specific password for third-party apps:
- Go to the FastMail 'Settings' page.
- Click on 'Passwords & Security'.
- Scroll to 'Third-party apps' and click 'Manage'.
- Click 'New App Password', select the device type, and specify 'Attachment Bot' as the app name.
- Click 'Generate' to create the app-specific password. Record it carefully as it will not be shown again.
Adding Your FastMail Account to Attachment Bot
After setting up IMAP and generating your app-specific password, you can add your FastMail account:
- Open Attachment Bot and navigate to the accounts tab in the sidebar.
- Tap 'Add Account'.
- Enter your full FastMail email address.
- Use the app-specific password you generated.
- For the IMAP server, enter 'imap.fastmail.com' and port 993.
- Save your account information to start accessing your emails in Attachment Bot.
Keep your app-specific password secure to maintain the security of your FastMail account.
