How do I set up POP3/IMAP email on an iPhone or iPad?

You can setup your iPhone or iPad to receive mail from one of your mailboxes as follows:

Go to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Add Account > Other > Add Mail Account

On the next screen enter the following settings:

Name: Your name as you would like recipients to see it
Address: The email address for the mailbox you want to setup
Password: The password for the mailbox
Description: Your own description for the mailbox

Press Save

On the next screen, leave IMAP selected at the top and enter the following settings:

Incoming Mail Server
Host Name: mail.yourdomainname (Or the mail server host name/IP address)
User Name: The email address for the mailbox you want to setup
Password: The password for the mailbox (should already be filled in)

Outgoing Mail Server
SMTP: mail.yourdomainname (Or the mail server host name/IP address)
User Name: The email address for the mailbox you want to setup
Password: The password for the mailbox

Press Save

You will then get a message saying “Cannot Connect Using SSL. Do you want to try setting up the account without SSL?”, press Yes.

It should then connect to the mail server and the account will be setup.

If you are having problems with sending mail, you may need to change the port for the SMTP server. You can do this by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendar > Select the mail account > SMTP > Primary Server > Server Port and changing this to 587.

This is the third time I have used hedley enterprises to create a website for our business. I can’t think of any reason to go to anyone else. In the early stages Neil listens and really endeavours to get behind what you want to achieve with your website and who your target audience is. Throughout the whole process you can expect much communication, flexibility, patience and efficiency.

There is nothing about building fantastic websites that Neil doesn’t know and nothing is too much trouble for him. I am delighted with our end result and that is largely down to Neil’s creativity. You are in very safe hands with Neil, I can recommend him 100%.

We contacted Neil via a recommendation, and we’re so glad we did. I liked his work on the Cullen website, and hoped he could do something along the same lines for us, while emphasising our unique location, and keeping the whole thing simple user- friendly, and in character with what we have to offer.

The result far exceeded our expectations ; the timescale in which he completed everything was amazing- Around two weeks, (I was calculating in months, rather than weeks, from past experiences ) His communication was excellent throughout, and he’s accessible at the end of the phone, to give friendly ongoing advice and support. Thanks for everything Neil!

Cullen Campervan Hire

As website novices we turned to hedley enterprises to create a website for Cullen Campervan Hire from scratch and we were not disappointed. From the start, Neil was approachable, knowledgeable, patient, and the costs were very reasonable.

The end result has been commented upon favourably by our customers and the same day back-up we have received has made it really easy to make small amendments to the site as your business has developed. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend hedley enterprises to anyone looking to create or update their website!
