Configuring Wanadoo.fr for your iPad/iPhone
With this post we will demonstrate how to set up Wanadoo.fr using IMAP and SMTP in an easy to follow way.
What is Wanadoo.fr:
Wanadoo was the Internet service provider division of Orange S.A. It operated in France, Spain, the United Kingdom, Belgium, the Netherlands, Tunisia, Algeria, Morocco, Senegal, Mauritius, Madagascar, Lebanon and Jordan. It ceased to operate as a worldwide brand on June 1, 2006, when it was rebranded as Orange. The origin of the name Wanadoo is subject to some controversy, as some maintain it came about in the late 1990s when many internet companies chose to compete by creating "Yahoo!"-sounding names. However, it might be that the name Wanadoo first appeared in an internal project at France Télécom, much in line with a number of other such projects such as France Animation until 2003, Intranoo, Tatoo, Netatoo and @noo.

Setting up Wanadoo.fr:
Mail app may find your settings automatically, then set up your account. Apply these steps to try:
- Go to Settings > Mail, then click Accounts.
- Tap Add Account > Other then click Add Mail Account.
- Type your name, email address, your password then a description for your account
- Tap Next. The Mail app will try and find the e-mail parameters and finish setting your account. If Mail finds your email settings, tap Done to complete your setup.
In case Mail can't find your mail parameters, then you will have to enter them yourself. I think you may need the following information:
Setup Needed for Receiving E-mail via IMAP
Server Hostname | imap.orange.fr |
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
Server Hostname | smtp.orange.fr |
Server Port | 465 |
Username | Your username (do not include the part after the @ sign) |

SSL/TLS | Yes |
Tap Next, then follow these steps:
- Select either IMAP or POP for your new account If you aren't sure which one to choose, contact Wanadoo.fr
- Type in the details (You might take a look at the table above) for Incoming Mail Server and Outgoing Mail Server. Then tap Next.
- If the email settings are correct, click Save to finish . If your e-mail settings are incorrect, you'll be asked to modify them.
- In case you still can't set up the e-mail account or save the settings, contact your email provider.
