How to configure my Basic mailbox on iPhone / iPad? (basic mail)
Sometimes the mail client will accept your settings and declare the setup done, even though there is something missing. Then you will experience a strange behavior of your mailbox – it will receive but not send messages or vice versa.
To set up your email account on your iPhone / iPad, please follow the steps below:
On your phone:
Unlock your iPhone / iPad and follow 'Settings' > 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' > 'Add Account' > 'Other' > 'Add Mail Account'.
Enter your names, full email address that you want to setup (ex. mail@mydomain.com), the password of that account and a description that speaks to you (ex. Work Email or Personal 2, etc.).
Choose between 'IMAP' and 'POP3'.
For Host Name use your IMAP / POP3 server.
POP3:
pop3.mailprotect.be
(port:110; SSL port: 995)
IMAP:
imap.mailprotect.be
(port: 143; SSL port: 993)
For User Name use your whole email address (ex. mail@mydomain.com).
For Outgoing mail server, use your SMTP server.
SMTP:
smtp-auth.mailprotect.be
(port: 2525; SSL port: 465)
Enter your email and password once again.
Click on 'Next'.
Click on 'Save'.
Now it is time to tinker the default settings.
