Configuring proinbox.com:
It is possible that Mail will find the e-mail parameters itself, and complete setting up your account. Follow the following steps first in order to see if it will:
- Go to Settings > Mail then tap Accounts
- Click Add Account > Other, and tap Add Mail Account
- Enter your name (can be any name), your email address, password then a description for account.
- Click Next. The Mail app should now try and find the mail parameters and finish setting your account. If Mail finds your e-mail parameter, click Done to complete your setup.
In case the Mail app can't find your email configuration, it means that you will have to enter them yourself. I think you may find the following information useful:
Incoming Mail Server (IMAP) Settings
Server Hostname | imap.fastmail.com |
Server Port | 993 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |
Authentication | Password |
SSL/TLS | Yes |
Outgoing Mail Server Settings
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 IMAP or POP for your new account. If you are not certain which one to choose, contact proinbox.com.
- Type the required information (You will want to have a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then click Next.
- If your mail settings are correct, click Save to complete the setup. If your mail settings are incorrect, you will be asked to modify the configuration.
- If you still can't set up the account or save the settings, contact the e-mail provider.
