- 1.1.4.1. Adding an Email Account 

- How to configure email accounts

Email providers frequently update security settings, which can impact how email is accessed through protocols like SMTP, POP3, and IMAP. For example, in 2022, Yandex and Google modified their security requirements, affecting how email accounts are configured. As a result, 1C: FirstBit users must make additional adjustments when setting up email accounts.

I. If you need to add a Google mail account, follow these steps to connect your email:

Enable IMAP and SMTP:

  • Log in to your Google account, go to Settings > Security, enable IMAP, and ensure app-specific passwords are allowed.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA):

  • Activate 2FA in Settings > Security > 2-Step Verification.

Configure Email in 1C:

In 1C: FirstBit, go to Administration> Email > Add Account. 

Enter the following details:

      • Email Address: Your full Google email address (e.g., example@gmail.com).
      • Incoming Mail Server: imap.gmail.com, Port 993, SSL enabled.
      • Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP): smtp.gmail.com, Port 465 or 587, SSL/TLS enabled.
      • Username: Your full Google email address.
      • Password: Paste the app-specific password generated earlier.

Test the Connection: Verify that the email account connects successfully.

These steps will enable your Google Mail account to connect seamlessly to the mail client.

By following these steps, you will be able to successfully add your Yandex mail account.


II. If you need to add a Yandex-mail account (relevant for Russian clients), the configuration will be done as follows:

Enable IMAP/SMTP Access:

    • Log in to your Yandex account.
    • Go to Settings > Mailbox settings.
    • In the "Access to Mail" section, ensure that IMAP/SMTP access is enabled.

 Generate an App Password (if Two-Factor Authentication is enabled):

    • If you have Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) enabled, you must generate an app-specific password.
    • Go to your Yandex account settings > Account security > App passwords and generate a new password for your mail client.

Configure the Mail Client:

Use the following server settings:

      • Incoming Mail (IMAP): imap.yandex.com, Port 993, SSL enabled
      • Outgoing Mail (SMTP): smtp.yandex.com, Port 465 or 587, SSL/TLS enabled
      • Username: Your full Yandex email address (e.g., example@yandex.ru)
      • Password: Your Yandex account password or the generated App Password

Test the Connection: Verify that the email account connects successfully.
