1. Go to Settings.
2. On the Settings screen, tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
3. Tap Add Account.
4. Tap Other.
5. Tap Add Mail Account.
6. Enter your Name, email Address, Password, and a short Description for your email. Tap Next.

8. Use these settings for your Incoming Mail Server:

   IMAP
   Tap IMAP at the top.
   Host Name	mail.yourdomainname
   User Name	Enter your full email address.
   Password	Enter your email account password.

9. Use these settings for your Outgoing Mail Server:

   SMTP (Outgoing Mail Server)
   Host Name	mail.yourdomainname
   User Name	Enter your full email address.
   Password	Enter your email account password.

10. Tap Next, and then tap Save.

That's it. On your device, go to Mail (it's usually in the row at the bottom of your screen). If everything is working OK, you should see some email messages. To make sure you can send messages, go ahead and compose an email and send it to yourself.

If you're not receiving email messages or you can't send messages, there are a few things that can happen during the setup process. We'll help you investigate and fix them, but the most likely problem is that SSL is being used for incoming and/or outgoing connections.
