Title: Automatic/Manual server configuration
Post by: freman on November 28, 2014, 04:04:54 am

Does anyone know what kind of automatic configuration AquaMail supports?

IE: does it support thunderbird, outlook or even RFC6186 configuration?

thunderbird:
    http request to autoconfig.bar.com/mail/config-v1.1.xml?emailaddress=foo@bar.com

outlook:
    SRV _autodiscover._tcp.bar.com,
    if there's a response, use that $autodiscover, otherwise autodiscover.bar.com
    post xml content to https request to $autodiscover/autodiscover/autodiscover.xml

It has a predefined list and some logic to "guess" (adding "imap." and "smtp." to domain name), which work off of the entered email address and the result of an MX lookup on its domain (so it can resolve settings for service like Google Apps, Yahoo Biz Mail, Office 365, etc).
