Before we proceed, be sure you have an active email hosting on Namecheap and you need to disable 2-Factor Authentication. Enable it later once you successfully added your Namecheap private email to Gmail.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is Namecheap private email?

Namecheap private email is a secure email service that helps you to keep your communication safe and confidential. It provides a range of features to protect your privacy, including password-protected email, encrypted email, and the ability to set up alias addresses.

Namecheap private email is also easy to use, with a simple interface that makes it easy to stay organized and manage your inbox.

What’s the difference between SSL and TSL?

There is a difference between SSL and TSL, two commonly used encryption protocols that are used to protect data online. SSL, or Secure Sockets Layer, provides secure connections between servers and web browsers, encrypting the communications that take place between these two entities. In contrast, TSL, or Transport Layer Security, goes one step further by also encrypting communications between the browser and the server’s host machine.

This difference makes SSL more suitable for sensitive web traffic like financial transactions or user logins, while TSL is best suited for less sensitive data such as browsing history.

Another difference is that while SSL uses digital certificates to validate its security, TSL relies on trusted third parties instead. This difference makes TSL more adaptable and scalable than SSL in large organizations where authentication may need to be delegated to several different parties.

Overall, while both protocols offer strong protection against cyber attacks and other forms of online security threats, they are used for different purposes depending on the needs of different organizations.

Understanding their key differences can help you better choose which protocol will be most appropriate for your specific use case.

After successfully added my private email on Gmail, can I login through Gmail using my private email account?

Absolutely not. Since you are using Gmail to fetch your email from your private email, you’re not creating an account on Gmail itself.

I’m getting “Server returned error: “Connection refused”. How to resolve this issue?

First, check your security details. If you enable 2-Step verification, this will return an error. Disable your 2-Step verification and enable it back once you successfully added your private email on Gmail.

Next, be sure you configured your email properly with the right details. Take note that Gmail generates automatic details. You may get confused and use them accidentally.

Back to You

That’s it! You’ve successfully setup email with Namecheap using Gmail! Now you can access all of your emails from one place and keep your inbox organized.

Take note, you can also do this on different email hosting and not just Namecheap. Just be sure your email provider allows secure connections and email protocols.
