Understanding the concept of e-mail category
Hi, I am a little bit confused about the concept with e-mails in 1Password.
There is a seperate category of e-mail items.
There you can enter all the e-mail relaitet stuff like servernames, ...

Hey @MaRob !
I could also make an LogIn item for that e-Mails only having the name, the e-mail adress and the password.
That's what I do.
I have a login entry with username, password, and website. And if I have more than one logins for an e-mail provider, I have more than one login entries.
Also, I have an e-mail entry with all the other stuff for my e-mail accounts like IMAP and SMTP which I need when adding this e-mail account into an e-mail app. Here, I also have more than one entries if I have more accounts from an e-mail provider.
Maybe I'm also using these entries wrong or in an inefficiency way…? But the problem is, that entries from the category "e-mail" are not suggested when trying to log into webmail accounts. Therefore, you need to have a matching login entry.
