# Set up XgenPlus mail on Android

To read XgenPlus mail in an Android mail app such as Gmail, turn on IMAP in XgenPlus and create an app password. In the app, add another account, choose **Other** and then **Personal (IMAP)**. Enter your full address and app password, then imaps.xgenplus.com on port 993 and smtps.xgenplus.com on port 465, both with SSL.

## When to use it

> Rohit uses a Samsung phone and already reads personal mail in the Gmail app. He adds his acme.in mailbox there with IMAP so both are in one inbox.

## Settings to enter

| Setting | Value |
|---|---|
| Account type | Personal (IMAP) |
