Is My Current Version of Microsoft Outlook Supported for Jaring Email?
Here’s what we can confirm based on our knowledge base articles about Jaring email service:
Outlook Compatibility with Jaring
From our guide “Jaring: How to configure email in Outlook”, the instructions apply broadly to Microsoft Outlook, without specifying any required or minimum version. IPSERVERONE
This implies that any version of Outlook which supports IMAP or POP with SMTP over SSL/TLS should be able to connect to the Jaring email service, provided:
-
The correct server settings are used (e.g. mbox.jaring.asia with IMAP port 993 or POP port 995, SMTP port 465). IPSERVERONE
-
The Outlook client supports modern encryption standards like SSL/TLS and can handle standard IMAP/POP/SMTP protocols.
Summary: Is Your Version Supported?
| Outlook Version | Supported with Jaring? | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Any version that supports IMAP/POP w/SSL | Yes | As long as it supports manual setup and SSL (IMAP, POP, SMTP). |
| Very old versions (e.g. Outlook Express, Outlook 2003 or earlier) | Maybe | If they can disable older protocols and allow SSL/TLS — may still work, but not guaranteed. |
| Outlook on non-Windows devices (Mac, mobile, web) | Check compatibility | Must support IMAP/POP and SSL/TLS. The guide is focused on Windows Outlook, but the protocols remain the same. |
What You Should Do
-
Check if your Outlook version allows manual configuration using IMAP or POP with SSL/TLS.
-
Enter the following Jaring server settings:
-
Incoming (POP): mbox.jaring.asia, port 995
-
Incoming (IMAP):mbox.jaring.asia, port 993
-
Outgoing (SMTP): mbox.jaring.asia
, port 465
-
-
Test sending and receiving. If it fails:
-
Ensure SSL/TLS encryption is enabled.
-
Try switching between IMAP and POP if needed.
-
If using a very old Outlook version, consider upgrading.
-
Final Answer
Yes — your current version of Microsoft Outlook is still supported for Jaring email, provided it is capable of:
-
Manual email setup (Entering server name, ports, protocols)
-
IMAP or POP support
-
SSL/TLS encryption
No restrictions or version limitations are specified by IP ServerOne for connecting Outlook to Jaring. If your Outlook meets the above criteria, you should be able to use it without issues.
