Mail.ru Cloud (Облако Mail) is the cloud storage of the Mail.ru mailbox. AeroFTP connects to it over WebDAV with a built-in preset that fills in the server for you.
Availability
The Mail.ru Cloud preset ships in AeroFTP v4.2.1. On v4.2.0, use the generic WebDAV form with the server https://webdav.cloud.mail.ru and the same app password.
What You Need
- a Mail.ru mailbox (
@mail.ru,@inbox.ru,@list.ru,@bk.ruor@internet.ru) - an app password: since 1 January 2022 Mail.ru blocks the mailbox password for WebDAV. Create one in your account settings under Security, Passwords for external applications
How to Connect
- Open AeroFTP.
- Select Mail.ru Cloud from the WebDAV providers.
- Enter your full mailbox address as the username.
- Paste the app password.
- Connect and save the profile.
