Connecting Tuta: Why IMAP Is Not Available

Tuta (formerly Tutanota) cannot be added to Patriot Mail, and it is not a settings problem you can work around. Tuta deliberately does not offer IMAP, SMTP, or POP3 at all, so no third-party email app can connect to it.

The short answer

Tuta has no IMAP by design

1

Encrypted by design

Tuta keeps mail end-to-end encrypted, which is why it avoids the standard protocols third-party clients rely on.

2

No third-party clients

Tuta accounts are reachable only through Tuta's own web, mobile, and desktop apps.

3

Nothing to configure

Because there is no IMAP endpoint, there is no address or password that would let Patriot Mail connect.

What works instead

Your options with Tuta

1

Use Tuta's own apps

Tuta's web and mobile apps are the only supported way to read a Tuta mailbox.

2

Forward to a mailbox you can connect

If you want your Tuta mail inside Patriot Mail, consider forwarding it to a provider that supports IMAP, then add that account here.

3

Add a different mailbox

Patriot Mail connects Gmail, Outlook, Yahoo, iCloud, and many IMAP providers. See the setup guides for those.

Proton Mail

Proton is similar but not identical - it offers IMAP only through a local, paid Bridge. Here is why that does not work with Patriot Mail.
