Setting up Fastmail.mx
Mail may find the email configuration itself, then set up your account. Apply the following steps first to try:
- Open Settings, then Mail, and tap Accounts.
- Click Add Account > Other, and tap Add Mail Account
- Type your name (can be any name), email address, your password and a description for your account.
- Click Next. Mail should now try to find the e-mail configuration and complete setting your account. If the Mail app finds your e-mail configuration, click Done to complete your setup.
If Mail didn't automatically set up your account, then you will need to enter them yourself. I think you may need the following information:

- If your mail settings are correct, click Save to finish . If the e-mail settings are incorrect, you will be asked to edit the configuration
