It will say “Looking for a match…” If it doesn’t forward you to another screen, select “Choose Provider”
Choose “IMAP/POP” as the provider
Have “Type” set to IMAP and insert the rest of the information requested.
Click “Add Account” and “Done”

Change “Authentication” to “User Name and Password”
Type in your email and password again – Click Ok
If you would like, change your “Account Description”(Only you see this) and “Full Name” (Name that will be shown to others) to whatever you would like it to say.
Close the window and you’re good to go!
