How to configure Embarq:

It is possible that Mail will find the settings itself then configure your account. Follow these steps first in order to see if that is possible:

  1. Go to Settings > Mail, then tap Accounts.
  2. Click Add Account > Other then tap Add Mail Account.
  3. Enter your name (can be any name), email address, your password with a description for account
  4. Click Next. Mail should now try and find the email configuration and finish your account setup. If Mail finds your e-mail parameter, tap Done to complete your setup.

In case Mail hasn't been able to automatically set up your account, then you need to enter them yourself. You will need the following information:

Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) Settings

Server Hostnamemail.centurylink.net
Server Port993
UsernameYour username (do not include the part after the @ sign)
AuthenticationPassword
SSL/TLSYes

Outgoing Mail Server Setup (using SMTP)

Server Hostnamesmtp.centurylink.net
Server Port587
UsernameYour username (do not include the part after the @ sign)
AuthenticationPassword
SSL/TLSYes

Tap Next, then follow these steps:

  1. Select either IMAP or POP for your new account. If you don't know which one to select, contact Embarq
  2. Enter the required details (You will want to refer to the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then click Next.
  3. If your email configuration is correct, tap Save to complete the setup. If your email setup is incorrect, the app will ask you to modify the configuration.
  4. If you still are not able to configure your email account or store your email settings, contact your e-mail provider.
