Apple iPhone & Apple iPod with iOS 6 (IMAP & SMTP over SSL)
To configure iPhone or iPod to send and receive email on our servers using IMAP over SSL, you can follow the steps below. In this manual we are using example domain name and email address, so please make sure to replace:
1. On your device's home screen, tap Settings.
2. Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars (if you have an older version of iOS, the setting may be called just Mail).
3. Tap Add Account.
4. Tap Other -> Add Mail Account.
5. In the Name field you should enter the name that would appear on the messages you send. Tap the Next button.
6. Tap IMAP.
7. For Host Name in the Incoming Mail Server section use mail.your_server.com (replace your_server.com with your server name).
8. Scroll to the Outgoing Mail Server section. Tap the Save button at the top of the screen.
9. Mail will verify your settings by connecting to the server. You will need to have an active Internet connection for that.
10. Your device will show IMAP screen next. Make sure Mail is set to ON and Notes to OFF. Tap on the Save button.
11. Tap your account under Accounts.
12. Tap on your account on the next screen as well (under the IMAP section).
13. Scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap on the SMTP setting.
14. Under Primary Server tap mail.your_server.com.
15. Make sure that Use SSL is set to ON and that Server Port is set to 587. Tap on the Done button. Tap on the back arrow button at the top of the page.
16. Tap Advanced.
17. Make sure that Use SSL is set to ON, and that the Server Port is 993. Type INBOX (all caps) for IMAP Path Prefix. Tap the back arrow at the top left corner of the screen to return to the previous screen, then tap on the Done button there. Your email account is now successfully configured. You can add additional e-mail accounts by repeating the same procedure. |
