The Email setup wizard helps you set up your account for many popular email systems,
including those based on IMAP and POP3, so you can read and work with the same
email as you do on a computer in Thunderbird, Mac Mail, in a web browser, or with
another email application. If your service provider requires additional settings, or if your
service provider is unknown to Email, you can enter the necessary details manually,
though you will typically need to contact your email service provider to determine the
right settings for your account.
Add an Email Account
1. Open the Accounts screen.
2. Press the Menu Key and touch Add account. In the Setup Email screen, enter
your email address and password. If you’re adding a second or subsequent email
address, you can also check the option to use the new account to send all outgoing
messages.
3. Touch Next. Or, if you need to enter email account settings the wizard can’t congure
for you, touch Manual setup. If you touch Next, Email attempts to communicate
with your email service provider to validate your account for sending and receiving
mail, using your email address and password. This is sufficient for most email
services.
Depending on the service provider, you may be asked what kind of email account
you have. If you’re not sure, check the settings in the application you use to send
and receive email on your computer, or ask your email service provider.
