Then click Save.

Step 3 Select the folder

Select the folders you want to import invoices from, then click Next.

The account is now connected, and the import runs automatically.

Connection not working?

If GetMyInvoices reports “Mail server denied authentication,” the cause is usually incorrect credentials, a missing app password, or disabled IMAP access. See Mail server denied authentication .
