How do I set up e-mail on my iPod?

I have tried on numerous accounts to set up an e-mail via my iPod. So I went to settings, then mail, contact,etc, then onto add account. I put in the correct details and a new address. before I could exit, it said: This account may not be able to send or recieve e-mail. I let it carry on, so I pressed save account.
With this e-mail account, I can't manage to recieve or send e-mails, and have have tried loads of times. The same thing happened with mobile me.
Am I doing something wrong?
Oh, and may your day be filled with sunshine and lollipops!

It appears that you have n incorrect entry for the accounts. I would delee the accont and try again. You can also Google for setting up mail for specific providers. If you get no hits for iPod Touch, try iPhone,

How do I set up my mail to automatically reply that we are on holiday?

How do I set up my mail to automatically reply that we are on holiday?

From Mail Help:
You can create a rule to have Mail automatically reply to incoming messages. For example, you can set up a rule that’s triggered by a specific subject so that Mail replies automatically to all messages with that subject.
This feature is useful if you receive a lot of similar messages from an online form on a website, and you want to reply automatically.
To automatically reply to messages:
Choose Mail > Preferences and click Rules.
Click Add Rule and type a descriptive name for the rule.
Set the conditions necessary for the rule to apply to a message.
From the “Perform the following actions” pop-up menu, choose “Reply to Message.”
Click “Reply message text” and enter the text for your reply message.
Mail will include the text you enter, along with the full text of the original message, in the message that it sends.
Mail must be running to automatically reply to messages, because rules aren’t processed while your computer is shut down or you’re logged out. To set up automatic replies while you’re on vacation, ask your email service provider how to set up an out-of-office reply.
Carefully consider the rules you create for sending automated replies. If they’re too broad, you can send messages inadvertently or create message loops (replies to replies you sent). If possible, test the rule.
After a rule has processed a message, the message’s status icon changes to a gray arrow to indicate a reply was sent.

How do I set up additional mail storage folders?

I have installed the cloud and my mail storage folders did not import into the IPAD. How do I set up additional mail storage folders?

did not have a mobile me account.
Copied from your previous post.
Waited for the ICloud to come out installed on both the MAC and the IPad. Started an .me account.
Did you have a MobileMe email account first or not?
And regarding your Mail storage folders that you want available on the iPad, mail storage folders from which email account? Since you just created an iCloud email account, any locally stored mailboxes created for another email account must be transferred to the server for your iCloud account for the mailboxes to be available with the account with the Mail app on your iPad. All server stored mailboxes with an IMAP account will be available automatically when accessing the account with the iPad's Mail app, but you must place any locally stored mailboxes on the server first. If you use the Mail.app on your Mac, select an drag a locally stored mailbox under the iCloud desgination in the Mail.app mailboxes drawer to copy the mailbox to the server with your iCloud account.

How do I set up a mail account for an older macbook?

I'm trying to set up a mail account for my dad on a used (but refurbished) macbook. It's running 0SX10.6.8. I'm not sure how to configure the incoming and outgoing mail servers. I didn't have to do this for my macbook air and my brother did not have to do it for his pro. I don't know if im supposed to use POP or IMAP. A window will pop up asking for the account type, incoming mail server, user name, and password. I don't know what to do from here.

Hello,
Your Internet/email service provider should be able to tell you exactly what to enter. You may also want to take a look at the following web page:

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.
