Configuring postpro.net:
Mail app may find the e-mail settings automatically, then complete setting up your account. Follow the following steps first to see if it can:
- Go to Settings > Mail, and tap Accounts
- Tap Add Account > Other, then click Add Mail Account
- Type in your name (can be any name), email address, your password and a description for your account.
- Tap Next. Mail will try to find the email parameters and set up your account. If the Mail app finds the email parameter, tap Done to complete your setup.
In case Mail couldn't automatically set up your account, then you will have to enter them yourself. We think you will need the information below:
Incoming Mail (IMAP) Configuration
Server Hostname | imap.fastmail.com |
Server Port | 993 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Settings Needed for Sending E-mail (via 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:
- Select either IMAP or POP. If you don't know which one to opt for, contact postpro.net.
- Type in the information (You may want to take a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then tap Next
- If the mail settings are correct, tap Save to finish . If the email settings are incorrect, Mail will ask you to edit the configuration
- In case you still are not able to configure your email account, or save your e-mail settings, contact your provider.
