IMAP/POP Monitor
The IMAP/POP Monitor verifies that your mail server is reachable for clients. This is useful for detecting authentication and connectivity issues that impact inbox access.
How it works
- We connect to your IMAP or POP endpoint and validate that the service responds.
- If the server cannot be reached or does not respond in time, the check fails.
Configuration
Basic settings
- Hostname: Hostname only, without protocol or path.
- Port: Optional (commonly 143/993 for IMAP, 110/995 for POP).
- Check interval and Timeout.
- Status:
active,maintenance,disabled.
Advanced settings
Protocol selection (IMAP vs POP) and other advanced options (e.g. encryption/auth requirements) can be configured via the monitor settings.
Monitoring locations
IMAP/POP checks run from our monitoring locations. You can restrict execution using Allowed Check Countries (monitor-level) or by using the customer-level defaults.
FTP Monitor
The FTP Monitor checks whether your FTP service is reachable and responsive. This helps detect outages on file transfer infrastructure used by legacy integrations, batch exports, or partner uploads.
Domain Expiry Monitoring
An expired domain is one of the most severe incidents that can happen to a website. Once a domain expires, the entire online presence becomes unreachable — and in the worst case, the domain is registered by a third party. Our Domain Expiry Monitoring helps you proactively prevent this.
