iPhone Mail Settings

Since the iphone came out, my bet that a lot of people would actaully need this settings to setup their email. ( so here's a copy of the settings - thanks to apple ) - i use to work as a tech guy.

*iPhone users can set up and make changes to an email account directly on their iPhone. Their email service provider can provide the account settings they need to enter. Changes they make on iPhone to an email account synced from their computer are not copied to their computer.

To enter an email account setting directly on iPhone:
If this is the first account that your gonna setup on the iPhone, tap Mail. Otherwise, from the Home screen choose Settings > Mail > Accounts > Add Account.
Then choose the email account type: Y! Mail (for Yahoo!), Gmail, .Mac, AOL, or Other.
Enter the account information:
If you are setting up a Yahoo!, Gmail, .Mac, or AOL account, put there your name, email address, and password. After that, you're done. Otherwise, click Other, select a server type — IMAP, POP, or Exchange — and have them enter their account information.

  • Email address
  • The email server type (IMAP, POP, or Exchange)
  • The Internet host name for the incoming mail server (which may look like mail.example.com)
  • The Internet host name for the outgoing mail server (which may look like smtp.example.com)
  • User name and password for incoming and outgoing servers (they may not need to enter a user name and password for an outgoing server)

Note: Exchange email accounts must be configured for IMAP in order to work with iPhone. Have them contact their IT organization for more information.
If iPhone users choose automatic syncing during setup, their existing email accounts should be already set up and ready to go. Otherwise, they can set iTunes to sync their email accounts, or configure email accounts directly on iPhone.

If you still have isues with sending and receiving emails using iPhone, try this URL: http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/troubleshooting/mail/ or just send an email to me.
