How to set up ownmail.net for your iPad/iPhone
In this article I will summarize configuring ownmail.net using IMAP and SMTP in a simple fashion...
History of ownmail.net:
Fastmail is an email hosting company based in Melbourne, Australia. In addition to its Fastmail-branded services, the company also operates Topicbox, a mailing list service, and Pobox, an email service it acquired in 2015. The company was acquired by Opera Software in 2010 but became independent again in 2013 through a staff buyout. Its servers are located in Bridgewater, New Jersey and Seattle, Washington.

Setting up ownmail.net:
It is possible that the Mail app will find the settings automatically and complete setting up your account. Apply the following steps to find out if that is possible:
- Open Settings, then Mail, and tap Accounts.
- Tap Add Account, click Other, and click Add Mail Account
- Type your name, email address, your password with a description for your account
- Click Next. The Mail app should try to find the email settings and set up your account. If the Mail app finds your e-mail configuration, tap Done to finish your account setup.
If Mail couldn't find your e-mail settings, then you will need to enter them manually. We think you may need the information below:
Configuration Needed for Receiving Mail via IMAP
Server Hostname | imap.fastmail.com |
Server Port | 993 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Configuration Needed for Sending Mail (using SMTP)
Server Hostname | smtp.fastmail.com |
Server Port | 587 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Tap Next, then follow these steps:
- Choose either IMAP or POP. If you aren't sure which one to select, contact ownmail.net.
- Type the information (You might take a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then tap Next.
- If your e-mail settings are correct, click Save to complete . If the email setup is incorrect, you will be asked to modify those settings.
- If you still aren't able to configure your account, or store the email settings, contact ownmail.net.
