Setting up mymacmail.com:
Mail app may find your email settings automatically, then complete setting up your account. Apply these steps first in order to find out if it can:
- Go to Settings > Mail, and click Accounts.
- Tap Add Account, tap Other, and click Add Mail Account
- Enter your name (can be any name), your email address, password with a description for your account.
- Tap Next. Mail should now try and find the e-mail parameters and set up your account. If Mail finds your e-mail parameter, click Done to finish your account setup.
