Zoho CRM Error message #1: Fixing [ Server Disconnect ] or [ Connect Error ] while configuring IMAP.
Error messages need no introduction. Software applications work based on a certain logic and you encounter an error message whenever the process deviates from the set logic. In this new series, we will be addressing some of the common error messages encountered in Zoho CRM and how to fix them on your own. There are couple of error messages that you might encounter while configuring IMAP within Zoho CRM.
[Server Disconnect] error when the server fails to establish connection with the ports
[Connection Error] when the web mail server refuses the connection.
Let's see how you can resolve these 2 error messages on your own. These errors appear due to the following reasons :
If the port numbers related to IMAP configuration are expired or closed
If there are multiple instances of same user's IMAP configured in different Zoho CRM accounts.
If the IMAP is not properly configured inside Zoho CRM
How can you resolve these errors?
If the port numbers related to IMAP configuration are expired or closed:
- Check whether the ports related to IMAP configuration are open by using the link http://ping.eu/port-chk/. If it's closed ask your administrator to open the ports and if it's expired check with your Email service provider or system administrator for the updated port number.
If there are multiple instances of same user's IMAP configured in different Zoho CRM accounts:
-Ensure you have just one instance of IMAP open in Zoho CRM. If there are multiple instances, closing the other instances would help fix this issue.
If the IMAP is not properly configured inside Zoho CRM:
To configure IMAP inside CRM, Go to CRM Settings --->Setup --->Email settings ---> Email integration and update the IMAP information. To get the IMAP configuration details, follow the below steps:
If you are using the Exchange server, get the IMAP information from your Exchange Server and update it in Zoho CRM.
If you are using a web mail, login to your email and get the valid IMAP configuration details.
The steps shared here should help fix this issue. If you still encounter the same problem, try white listing the Zoho IP ranges - listed below - in the web mail server.

I'm asking you all for any feedback as to the logic or reasoning behind drastically limiting portal users when Zoho already meters based on number of records. I'm a single-seat, Zoho One Enterprise license holder. If my portal users are going to add records, wouldn't that increase revenue for Zoho as that is how Creator is monetized? Why limit my customer portal to only THREE external users when more users would equate to more records being entered into the database?!?
