Adding and editing email accounts

The first time you open Email, you are prompted to set up an email account. After that, you can configure Email to send and receive email from additional accounts. The accounts that you configure are displayed in the Accounts screen. See “Opening Email and the Accounts screen” on page 180.

The Email setup wizard helps you set up your account for many popular email systems, including those based on POP3, IMAP, and SMTP, 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.

You can also set up an a Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync account (Exchange 2003 and 2007), so you can read and work with the same email as you do on a computer using Microsoft Outlook. Email supports username and password authentication for Exchange ActiveSync accounts; it does not support other Exchange ActiveSync security policies at this time.

To add an email account

1Open the Accounts screen.

See “Opening Email and the Accounts screen” on page 180.

2Press Menu 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.

3Touch Next. Or, if you need to enter email account settings the wizard can’t configure 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 just 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.

If the wizard determines that your service provider requires additional information, or if you touched Manual setup, you’re prompted to enter your email account details.
