Android (IMAP)
Please note: When sending mail from a third-party mail client, your copy of the message will be saved in your Sent folder as encrypted, even if the message is sent as non-encrypted. By default, any mail sent via SMTP from a third-party mail program will be sent as non-encrypted, unless the recipient is a Hushmail customer or has previously set a passphrase for receiving encrypted email.

- Open the Applications menu.
- Open the Email application.

Next, you will be asked to select an account type.

Still having trouble signing in? Something to note is that regardless of if your Hushmail email address ends in @hush.com, @hush.ai, @hushmail.me, @mac.hush.com or your own custom domain name, you will need to use imap.hushmail.com and smtp.hushmail.com as your server settings.
