Today I had to face bit of a difficulty getting an UAE based Etisalat email account setup on an email client. This post is to help those who might be in the same situation.If you have different settings that work in your case, please share in the comments to get fellow IT guys & gals to know about it.Following settings can be used to setup your Etisalat email account on Outlook, Thunderbird, Android mail, Apple mail or Any other email client that support IMAP or POP3 and SMTP.
Etisalat UAE IMAP Settings (Incoming)
Encrypted (Secured)
IMAP Host/Server name: apmail.emirates.net.ae or exmail.emirates.net.ae
IMAP Port: 993IMAP Type of Encryption: SSL

IMAP Host/Server name: apmail.emirates.net.ae or exmail.emirates.net.ae

In POP3 your complete email will be downloaded to the client. If you want to access your email from multiple devices make sure you enable “Leave a copy of message on the server option” otherwise it will automatically delete your emails after downloaded to the first POP3 client.
