Setting up iPhone/iPad

 

Set up your IOS device

 

Tap Settings.

Generally, the Settings icon appears in one of your device's main screens.

The Settings menu will appear.


Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

Tap Mail, Contacts, and Calendars in the Settings menu.

The Mail, Contacts, and Calendars menu will appear.

 


Tap Add Account.

Tap Add Account in the Mail, Contacts, and Calendars menu.

The Add Account menu will appear.

 

Tap Other.

Tap Other in the Add Account menu of mail account types.

The Other menu will appear.

 

Tap Add Mail Account.

Tap Add Mail Account in the Other menu.

The New Account interface will appear.

Enter your account information and tap Next.

Enter the following information in the New Account interface's text boxes:

  • In the Name text box, enter the name that you wish to use for the email account.
  • In the Email text box, enter your email address.
  • In the Password text box, enter the password for the email account.
  • In the Description text box, enter a description for the email account.

Tap Next to proceed to the next screen in the New Account interface.

Select a mailbox type and verify information.

Use the toggle at the top of the screen to select a mailbox type.

Note:

We recommend that you select the IMAP mailbox type. If you select the POP3 mailbox type, the mobile device's email client will download all of the account's email messages, and then remove the messages from the server. You will not be able to access those messages from any other email client.

Verify all of the information for your account, and then tap Next to proceed to the next screen.

Enter information for your incoming mail server and tap Next.

Enter the following information in Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server text boxes. The iPhone indicates these fields as optional but they are not.

Host Name: mail.yourdomain.com
User Name: your full email address
Password: your password


Outgoing Mail Server: mail.yourdomain.com
User Name: your full email address
Password: your password

Save the information.

Tap Save to save the entered information. Your iPhone will then verify your account information.

If the dialogue says it cannot connect through SSL and asks if you want to continue anyway, select Yes.

Upon successful completion, you will be taken back to the Mail screen. Your account will now be listed. Attempt to download your e-mail and send yourself a test if you'd like to verify the setup.
