Setup Email on Your Phone
Follow the instructions below to learn how to configure your email on an iPhone, or on an Android device.
Set up your email account on an Android phone
To set up your email on an Android phone, open the Settings app and search for the Add Account section. Provide the email address (user@yourdomain.com) and press MANUAL SETUP.
Next, you will be able to choose the type of email account you will be using. We recommend the IMAP protocol because it will keep your messages on the server after you download them on a local device.

You will need to fill in your password and tap Next. Enter the incoming server settings:

- Username: user@yourdomain.com
- Password: the password for your email account
- Server: mail.yourdomain.com
- Port and Security Type: Select IMAP, and then:
- Secure – Port: 993 and Security Type: SSL/TLS (recommended)
- Insecure – Port: 143 and Security Type: None
When you complete filling in the information, tap Next and continue with the outgoing server settings.
- Username: user@yourdomain.com
- Password: the password for your email account
- Server: mail.yourdomain.com
- Port and Security Type:
- Secure: Port 465 and Security Type: SSL/TLS
- Insecure: Port: 25 or 2525 and Security Type: None
Tap Next and choose the preferred sync frequency options. Lastly, press Next and your email account will be ready to use with your Android phone.
Set up your email account on an iPhone
To configure your email on an iPhone, tap Settings on your home screen. Then, proceed to Passwords & Accounts > Add Account > Other > Add Mail Account. There you will need to fill in the required information:
- Name: i.e. John Smith
- Email: i.e. user@yourdomain.com
- Password: the password you’ve set for your email account
- Description: a short description of your email account

When ready, tap Next and you will have to fill in the details of the Incoming Mail Server:
- Host Name: yourdomain.com
- User Name: user@yourdomain.com
- Password: the password you’ve set for your email account

Complete the same steps for the Outgoing Mail Server and wait for the Mail app to verify your information. Then, tap Save and your email will be added to your email account list.
