Your iPad can automatically set up most popular email accounts, but if you need to set up an email account that isn't from one of the more popular providers, then you'll need to type some additional information such as your incoming and outgoing mail server settings. (If you have no idea what these settings are, you'll need to get them from your email provider or your Internet service provider.)
To set up an email account manually, follow these steps:
From the Home screen, tap Settings. The Settings screen appears.
Tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars. The Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings screen appears (shown earlier in Figure 16-1).
Tap Add Account. The Add Account screen appears (shown earlier in Figure 16-2).
Tap Other. The Other screen appears, as shown in Figure 16-4.
Tap Add Mail Account. A New Account window appears with the virtual keyboard.
Type your name, email address, password, and description of your email account, and tap Save. The Enter your account information window appears, as shown in Figure 16-5.
Scroll down and type your host name, username, and password for your incoming and outgoing mail servers.
Tap Save.
Press the Home button. The Home screen appears.
Tap Mail. If you're currently connected to the Internet, your iPad will retrieve any messages for that email account.
