Apple Mail / OSX Mail typical Server settings

You should normally be able to let OSX detect the settings, (Automatically manage connection settings) but here are the settings shown in you uncheck Automatically manage connection settings. Tested 2023.

Editing your settings will depend on your version of OSX but these were found via the MAIL application menu > Preferences > Server settings.

Incoming Mail Server (IMAP)
Username Your full email address e.g. name@domain.com
Password Your password as set in the CMS
Host Name mail.cms-tool.net
Port 143
Use TLS/SSL checked
Authentication Password

Outgoing Mail Server (IMAP)
Username Your full email address e.g. name@domain.com
Password Your password as set in the CMS
Host Name smtp.cms-tool.net
Port 587

If these settings do not solve your email problem you will need to consult an IT person to determine the issue.
