## Common questions

### Does plMail need to run as the actual mail server for my domain?

No, plMail is not a mail server and does not receive mail from the internet or host your domain. It only connects to mailboxes you already have, such as IMAP, Gmail, and Outlook.

### Where does plMail store the mail and account credentials?

It syncs your mailboxes into your own PostgreSQL database, and credentials are encrypted before they touch the database.

### How do I connect Gmail or Outlook?

plMail supports IMAP, Gmail, and Outlook, and the handbook lists the exact permissions to tick when connecting Gmail and Outlook, including sending aliases.

### Can the built-in calendar sync with Google and Microsoft?

Yes, the calendar has two-way sync with Google, Microsoft, and CalDAV, and invitations can be answered in place.

### Can I use a local Ollama model with plMail?

You can point plMail at an Ollama box on your own network so it can search mail by meaning.
