Trouble Deleting and re: Setting Up New Pop account on iPhone

Hi,
I have a new hosting provider so I need to re-set up my POP mail account on my iPhone. I first deleted the mailbox account on iPhone, then re-created it with the settings provided by my email provider. I know these settings are correct, because the whole process worked on my iMac mail.
The problem is that I can send mail from the newly set up mailbox, but I cannot receive mail. Both my incoming and outgoing mailservers are the same.
Could my problem be that both my previous and current mail providers have the same Server/Host names?
Could it be that I did not successfully deleting my old host's settings? I still see all my old mail on the iPhone from my previous provider.
My new host says it's an iPhone problem because I have entered the correct settings and mail to and from the new server is working on my iMac.
Thanks for any suggestions!

Problem in setting up new email account on iPhone

Grateful for any help with this irritating problem. I'm trying to load my ntlworld email acount onto a new iPhone but, after 20 minutes waiting while the system tries to "verify", am getting the message that the SMTP server smtp.ntlworld. com is not responding. I've followed the tips in the help manual but they don't work. Any advice would be very helpful. Thanks

Contact yoru email provider for support and verify you have the correct settings.

Need host and stop setting to link hotmail account to iPhone verizon

iphone 6 on verizon won't link to my hotmail account to get mail. Help!!!

Ok. So what's your question? What troubleshooting have you done?

HT1338 I can no longer use Macmail for my btinternet account. I was advised to delete the imap account and begin again with a pop account for incoming mail. My Macbook will not let me do that and neither BT nor Yahoo have been able to help.

Btinternet being your internet service provider? If I'm correct, have you followed their directions:

Just set up my new ipad Air and cannot set up my gmail account into mail ?

Just set up my new ipad Air and cannot set up my gmail account into mail ?

EASY SIMPLE FIX....
The problem is Google.
I had the same problem, couldn't install Gmail on my ipad or iphone and kept saying wrong / incorrect password, error messages. Worked for hours and hours on this.
It is Google's (optional) 2-step verification system that is to blame.
Google won't tell you this, and instead, they have come up with work arounds, and even telling people to install the Gmail iPhone/ipad app, which then limites the iphone/pad functionality when not using iphone's native mail.
FIX:
Logon to Google...
Go into your Google account preferenes
DELETE your cell number used for 2-step verification...... leave it blank
(it is optional, Google does not require you use 2-step verification)
Thats it. Your'e done.
Now set up your Gmail (now called Google) as usual on your Apple device.
You don't need 2-step (optional) verification.
There are other secure ways to do this. It is an option, but Google goes out of it's way not to tell you this.
(and a great way for Google to gleen your personal information, in the name of security)
Hope this helps someone.

If his Gmail account is under the Gmail app and press the app until it wiggles then press the extra deleted. If this account is under the Apple email and then you can go to Settings, mail contacts calendars and then select the account and remove it.

The procedure is Settings>Messages>Send & Receive at>You can be reached by iMessages at>Add another email address. The email address has to be a valid working email address, obviously. Apple should verify the email address and you have to go to the inbox of that email account, read the verification email from Apple and follow the inductions in the email in order to complete the verification. Then you go back to the settings, uncheck your email address and check the new email address to be used as the contact email address.

On each device go to Settings> iTunes and App store> Turn off automatic downloads of Music, Apps and Books. Now a purchase will only go to the device from which it was ordered.

Trying to set up two POP accounts - won't work

Hi there,
I am trying to set up a second Yahoo account on Mail. It shares the same incoming and outgoing server as my original account I use through Mail. But the user name is different. I can't log in with this new email address. It keeps throwing up the message:
'trying to log into the POP server "pop.mail.yahoo.com.au" has failed. Please make sure the username and password are correct. If you continue, you may not be able to receive any mail.'
This IS true, if I continue with the set up of this account, I'm not able to receive any incoming mail.
I have tried this countless times. I DEFINITELY have the right username and password for this second account.
Is it not possible to set up another POP account with a different user name but the same server name?

What targeting the Mail.app preference file, do the following:
Quit the Mail.app first and using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Mail. Copy the Mail folder and place the copy on the Desktop for backup purposes.
Using the Finder, go to Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.mail.plist. Move the com.apple.mail.plist file to the Desktop.
Note: Moving the com.apple.mail.plist file out of the Preferences folder will require re-entering all email account information when re-launching Mail.
The only exception to this is if you have a .Mac account which will be recreated automatically and/or if you created an email account as part of the computer setup assistant when first turning on the computer when new.
Launch Mail and decline any prompt to import mailboxes. After re-entering all email account information, the Mail.app should rediscover the existing account named folders and mailbox files at Home > Library > Mail.
After confirming all mailboxes were successfully rediscovered, you can delete the copy of the Mail folder and old com.apple.mail.plist file from the Desktop.
Test if this resolves the problem.
