I thought they grandfathered free accounts that were using those.

But yeah, you have to pay for that stuff now. Personally I think it’s reasonable to have the free plan stripped down like that. It’s better than what Microsoft and Google did.

They did grandfather it in, so if you had it before, you have it now and there is no reason for someone to drop because of it - until Zoho changes it for the grandfathered accounts...

Perhaps it's a pro only feature now or something? I just set up a client's phone to use Zoho with IMAP.

Yeah I think it moved to paid sadly. But custom domain is amazing

What? I still use IMAP on free tier without issues. Is this only for new accounts?

edit: Damn, I just read the sibling account. Kind of nervous now, I hope they won't drop this any time soon for grandfathered accounts.

Hello all,

As someone mentioned, our free plan doesn't support IMAP, POP and ActiveSync. But this was implemented only for newer accounts and the existing accounts which had the support earlier, continue to enjoy the features without any additional costs. So if your account was created earlier, you would have IMAP/ POP support without any issues.
