Setting up 189.cn:

On your Android phone or tablet, open the Gmail app.
In the top right, tap your profile picture.
Tap Add another account.
Choose the type of account you want to add:
- If you check work or school emails through Outlook for Windows, select Outlook, Hotmail, and Live.
- If you don't see your email service, select Other.
Enter your email address and tap Next.

Choose the type of mail account (either POP3 or IMAP) you will use. Not all services provide both. Please check out the table below for available protocols.
- IMAP protocol will keep the mails on the server, and it will display a cached copy on your Android device. IMAP is recommended for almost all users.
- POP3 downloads the emails from the remote server and it will keep them on your Android device.
Type in the passphrase for the mail address and click Next.
