Can't set up my mail

just swiched to this phone to day. Had a blackberry before. Seting up the e-mail was very easy. Not on the iPhone I can not get it to link to my server. It says can not connect with ssl try with out. Does that and atill no connection. What can I do? Are there any additional setting that I need to change to get this to work? Can some one please help. It is a pop account.

Hello,
First and foremost, use Outlook or Thunderbird email client and see if IMAP or POP works. If it does (this will prove that several server side things and connectivity is setup properly), then move on to checking your iPhone settings further.
Some things to try for IMAP (IMAP is much better):
1. set your bare windows username in the incoming and outgoing mail server fields without appending @ or anything else. If that doesn't work, you could also try using domain\username or domain/username in those fields.
2. Click on the Advanced button and make sure SSL is on for IMAP and SMTP and make sure the ports are correct for your email server (SMTP is usually 465). Try adding :465 to your smtp outgoing email server field (sometimes I've seen it fall back to something else in the Advanced settings section). Also make sure it says Password for authentication and not NTLM or other (or try them all).
3. Make sure your Exchange admin has the necessary IMAP and SMTP ports open to the outside world and that an SSL certificate was added to the IMAP Exchange virtual server. I think most do not, and your BB may not have been using IMAP? also make sure the Exchange server has SP2 installed and that your user account has mobile and imap enabled on the server side.
4. Try it on the internal Exchange network (LAN) using the iPhone Wifi wireless connection.
5. Try deleting and re-adding your account on iphone with each of your new settings attempts just in case.
6. Try it using iphone's IMAP add account option if the Exchange option doesn't work.

Can I set up e-mail to automatically download attached files from a trusted source

can I set up e-mail to automatically download attached files from a trusted source to a desktop folder? Can't find the option (if one exists) in "Rules."

Have you checked Mail > Preferences > General > Downloads folder - change that to desktop. That should do it (that is my setting and it works here).

How can I set an outlook mail account to the mail app in mac

My outlook mail account doesn't work in the mail app, it keeps asking for my password everyday, and the outgoing mail server says "outlook.com (dissconected)".

I don't have Hotmail, but generally, web based email accounts need to be set up within that account (in this case Hotmail) - you need to go to your Hotmail account and check if it can be set up as an IMAP or POP account with emails automatically being forwarded to Mail. Hopefully someone with a Hotmail account will chime in with more specific info; in the meantime, check out the options in your account there.

GAH! How Can I Set Up My Mail Accounts?

I have 15 email accounts in total, each with it's own unique 64 character password. Manually setting up email accounts on my devices is clearly not an option. No worries, because up until today, I simply synced my mail account data from iTunes. You only have to do it once, you don't need any sort of on-going email account data syncing. The accounts keep their own mail in sync, so the 'setup sync' was a one time deal. And I didn't sync the accounts with mobile me, or later icloud, because I wanted different accounts on differnet devices.
Well I just got my new iPhone 5S and I'm trying to set up my mail. But I can't! There's no way to sync Mail data! I tried turning on iCloud Keychain (which was a complete disaster the first time I tried to use it, but I need my email!) I tried deleteing my iCloud account and re-adding it on my phone (and my old phone that I erased, and re-setting up as an iPod). But no matter what I do, I can't get any mail accounts to show up.
I NEED my email on my phone. There is no way around it, I cannot function without that. I don't even put my phone number on my business cards any more, only email. Email HAS TO WORK. But thanks to Apple, I can't get it on there.
It would seem that my only option is to get it to sync via iCloud Keychain? That's going to cause me an unlimited amount of headaches, but if that's the only way to get mail accounts to sync, then I guess that's what I have to do. But how do I do it? I have turned on iCloud Keychain on all of my devices and computers, but no mail accounts are syncing.
All my Macs are currnetly on Mavericks, and all my devices (iPad mini, iPhone 4S deactivated, iPhone 5s) are on iOS 7.

Welcome to the Apple Community.
This type of service is offered by IMAP email accounts such as the me address that is associated with your iCloud account.
Are you saying it isn't working or are you trying to add a third party address (ie gmail, yahoo etc etc) to your mail account and expecting it to work like an IMAP account.

How can you set up a mail group

I want to set up different mail groups how do you do that

While the pad guide suggests you can do it within contacts on your computer, then sync the groups to the pad, i have never been able to get that to work. There are a couple of apps that do a good job, specifically mail shop, and whT i think is the best, group e mail. Group e mail also allows for some attachments, which is also a benefit not in the normal mail app. Take a look in the app store, and read the reviews to find the one you want.

Can't set up IMAP mail - configuration cannot be verified

Hi,
I'm having trouble setting up the IMAP mail from my work exchange server in a fresh install of Thunderbird. Once I'd put in the server address Thunderbird retrieved all of the security settings, which I've checked agains the provided settings that are listed in the webmail. I've also used these settings to set up IMAP mail on my phone to triple check everything. However, in the account set-up screen I still recieve the message "Configuration cannot be verified - Is your username/password correct?" (again, I checked everything I was using independently and they were accepted). Once I got out of the initial set-up screen the error changed to the following:
"The Kerberos/GSSAPI ticket was not accepted by the IMAP server <my email address>. Please check that you are logged into the Kerberos/GSSAPI realm."
The only possibility that I can think of is that Thunderbird is trying to use my email address instead of the server to authenticate which is why I'm recieving the error. The mail address is [email protected] while the server is soliscom.uu.nl.
Any help or suggestions that anyone has would be welcome,
Cheers.

Under Tools/Account Settings/<i>accountname</i>/Server Settings, check what you have for Authentication method. "Normal password" is the most common setting for secure connections, not Kerberos/GSSAPI, which seems to be why you get the error message.
But if you are sure that Kerberos/GSSAPI authentication is required, see this article for instructions on how to make the necessary change in Config. editor:

Can't set up my mail account. Virgin info says it should be POP Mac says it is IMAP

Hi
I am trying to set up my email account. I have recently changed from windows to a mac. Virgin media say it should be a POP account - Mac says IMAP on account type. I have at least three mail accounts now and non of them work. How can I re-start mail set up. Any help would be great. Thank you.

The account information says Account Type: POP which won't let me alter it. The next box down says Description and so on. I can only alter certain things but nothing that lets me alter the Account Type. I downloaded "how do I set up apple mail on os x" from the virgin website but it doesn't tell me how to alter the POP to IMAP etc. Can I just delete all the mail boxes and try again from scratch? Thanks for the reply.
If mail has lready been downloaded you need to back it up before you delete the account, POP does not synchronize mailboxes so you may have the only copies of your mail on your computer so:
In Mail, go to Mailbox>Export Mailbox and repeat for each mailbox with content you want to keep.
Then delete the whole account and re-enter it but leave the password blank, click create and you will get to a manual setup page in which you can choose iMap/Pop etc. You will need to know the correct server settings so get them from Virgin.
From this page (VirginMedia mail Setup) it appears that VirginMedia mail is POP only so you can't change it to iMap.

Can't set up new Mail accounts on N8

I want to add another email account to my N8 (and set it up as IMAP rather than POP3 if possible?) however, I have to set it up through the Wizard, there doesn't seem to be a way of manually setting one up since PR1.1 update (correct?)
However, whenever I try, my phone attempts to contact Nokia's mail server or something and says 'Preparing for setup' for ages then times out. It then asks me for a username and password, and the only options I get for setting up a mail account is a Microsoft Exchange Server option, which I don't think Yahoo mail offer!
Can anyone help?

Just a thought network access point is defined as Priority 1 in internet destinations rather than WLAN?
