How to add your OX Email account to Gmail on Android
Important: OX Email needs to be added to your device as IMAP or POP. It is not compatible with Exchange.
If you have been migrated from Microsoft Email Essentials to OX Email, you will need to migrate your calendars and contacts manually. Please check out Microsoft's guides on exporting and importing contacts and calendars.
You can add your OX Email account to Gmail on an Android device.
Our recommended settings are:
- IMAP
- server: mail.wcg-mail.com
- port: 993 (SSL encryption)
- SMTP
- server: mail.wcg-mail.com
- port 587 - encryption TLS
Add your email to Gmail

If you are using Gmail on this device for the first time, open the app and click + Add an email address
- Tap Other
- Type in your email address and click Next
- Tap Personal (IMAP) or Personal (POP)
We recommend IMAP as it will sync all your devices, using this email account, together - making sure you're up to date no matter the device you choose to access your email on.
