How can I restrict access to my email address by country?

Procédure

Sometimes, it can be useful for security reasons to only allow IPs from certain countries to connect to your email address. For example, if you are the only one connecting to your email address from France, you may want to restrict access to your email address to French IPs only to avoid your mailbox being hacked by hackers from other countries.
