selections, and are happy to continue, all

more. If you wish to add a Microsoft
Exchange account, tap the Exchange
option on the screen shown above. If it’s a
service provided by your ISP (Internet
Service Provider), tap Other at the bottom.2
You will have to visit the support
website of your email provider and
seek out their help in setting up either a
POP or IMAP email account on your
iPhone. As these details are all different for
each provider, we can, alas, only send you
in their direction for help.3
Once you have obtained all the
required information from your email
provider, you must then enter these details
as requested. When complete, you are
ready to go; your iPhone contacts the
email server in question and downloads
any emails you have for this account.● ● http://www.bdmpublications.com 9
