Migrating email from Virgin to Proton Email using IMAP Failing
I'm setting up a Proton Mail account, for security reasons. I want to migrate my Virgin emails to my Proton account. It uses IMAP to do this. But when I enter my Virgin login details, it says it can't access my Virgin email account. It says to check that my Virgin IMAP server and login details are incorrect. I've tried using both imap.virginmedia.com and imap.ntlworld.com servers, and port 993.
The Proton app says to ensure IMAP is enabled on my Virgin email account. But I don't know where to check this, or if its enabled by default. Can anyone give me some pointers on how to do this?
