Setting Up an IMAP or POP Email Account

You can use the Inbox application (Microsoft Outlook Mobile) to send and receive email messages. To use Inbox, you must have an email account with an Internet service provider (ISP), an email account that you access using a VPN server connection (such as a work account), or any other IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) or POP (Post Office Protocol) email account.

Note

If you have multiple email accounts, you must enter settings for each email account.

Setting Up Inbox to Work With Common Providers

Use the following steps if you have a common email provider such as AOL, EarthLink, Yahoo! Mail Plus, or Gmail. If you are setting up the Inbox application to work with your corporate email account, or if you have a less-common email provider, see “Setting Up Inbox to Work With Other Providers” on page 132.

Before You Begin

Ask your email provider or system administrator for your account username and password if you don’t know them.

1.Make sure your phone is on (see “Turning Your Phone On and Off” on page 35).

2.Press Inbox .

3.Select Setup E-mail.

4.Enter the email address and password for the email account that you want to set up.

5.If you want to enter your password each time you access this account, uncheck the Save password box. (If you want your password entered automatically, check this box.)
