VI. Email Setup
Introduction
The pre-installed Email app is a simple but effective email client for both POP3 and IMAP
email services. Confi guration is automatic for some email services. For those that are
auto-confi gured, you only need to enter the email address and password, then click next.
If this does not work, you’ll need to manually confi gure your account. Details are below.
Prior to beginning, you will need detailed email confi guration information which is
available from your service provider. You may have to locate the server settings
information at your Email Provider’s support website, or you may need to call their support
line. Unfortunately Velocity Micro cannot provide assistance with this step.
Below is the information you will need:
Server Type
You must select POP3, IMAP, or Exchange according to your email
service provider’s instructions. Typically this is POP3, but many are now
allowing for IMAP service. If you need to connect to an Exchange server,
contact your business systems Network Administrator for assistance.
Username or
Email Adress
This must be either your email alias (the part in front of the @ character),
or your full email address.
Password The password is case sensitive
Incoming mail server This is the address at which your incoming mail is waiting for you.
Port
You must specify a port number for communication with your incoming
mail server.
Outgoing mail server This is the address which is waiting for your outgoing mail.
Port
You must specify a port number for communication with your outgoing
mail server.
Security Type
You must specify if/whether a security method is required for
communication with your incoming mail server.
Next, complete the fi elds for the Incoming Server portion of the manual setup. After complet-
ing the Incoming Server portion of the manual setup, the app will test your settings. If every-
thing is correct, it will proceed with the Outgoing Server portion of the manual setup. Once that
test completes, give the account a name, enter your display name, and you’re done!
