포트143— IMAP / STARTTLS
TCP 143의 IMAP은 지원되는 경우 STARTTLS로 연결을 암호화하도록 전환할 수 있습니다. 포트 993의 암시적 TLS와는 다릅니다.
Registry assignments, software defaults and local listeners are different things. A port number alone does not identify or secure a service.
Configuration and troubleshooting
클라이언트의 포트, TLS 모드, 호스트 이름, 인증 설정을 서버와 일치시키세요. TLS 협상 오류와 로그인 실패를 구분하세요.
Important limitations
신뢰할 수 있는 암호화 연결 없이 비밀번호를 보내지 마세요. 포트 143을 선택하는 것만으로 STARTTLS가 활성화되지는 않습니다.
Read-only checks: run on the server host
Choose the commands for your OS. Check TCP and UDP separately. No result is not a lasting availability guarantee; inspect host and container separately.

사용 시 참고 사항
- 포트 143 사용 전에 다른 서비스가 점유하고 있지 않은지 확인해 주세요
- 포트 충돌이 발생하면 다른 포트를 사용하거나 해당 포트를 점유한 서비스를 중지하는 것을 고려해 보세요
자주 묻는 질문
What is port 143 used for?
Port 143 sits in the Email & Messaging category. This page lists the registered purpose and the software commonly associated with it; to see what is actually listening on a specific machine, check the process with ss/netstat.
Is port 143 TCP or UDP?
The registered protocol on this page is TCP. The same number behaves independently on each protocol: TCP may be listening while UDP is idle, so check them separately.
How do I check if port 143 is in use?
On Linux: sudo ss -tlnp 'sport = :143' for an exact port match. On macOS: sudo lsof -nP -iTCP:143 -sTCP:LISTEN. On Windows PowerShell: Get-NetTCPConnection -LocalPort 143 -State Listen. A listener counts as confirmed only when you can see the bind address and process name; without root/admin you will not see other users' processes.
Is port 143 secure? Should I open it in my firewall?
A port number has no inherent security — it depends on whether the listening service is correctly configured and whether it needs exposure at all. Keep loopback/internal-only services firewalled; where public access is required, pair it with source restrictions, VPN or authentication. The caution section on this page lists port-specific risks.
