When using WPS Other Email on macOS, the most common questions involve account limits, domain availability, and sign-in credentials; this FAQ includes 3 common questions plus a glossary.
FAQ
How many third-party email accounts can I add?
- This feature itself does not state a quantity limit.
- For stable daily use, add accounts based on your actual workload instead of connecting too many at once.
- After setup, you can review and manage these mailboxes in one client.
What should I do if I cannot find the email domain I need?
- First, check whether the current page includes the domain you need.
- If it is not available, contact your administrator to complete the related domain setup or authorization.
- After that is done, return to Other Email and try adding the account again.
Why can’t I finish setup after entering my password?
- Check whether the third-party email service requires an app password instead of the normal sign-in password.
- Verify that the protocol type, incoming server, and outgoing server are correct.
- If the email service does not support this connection method, adjust the configuration based on that provider’s instructions.
