To access accounts from these email providers,
you must have already set up an active account
with one of them. To do this you need to visit their
respective websites and follow the onscreen instructions,
then come back to add the account to the Mail app.

Follow the on-screen instructions, entering your email
address (that’s the one for the account you’re
registering with your iPad), password and any other details
you’re asked for. Agree to your iPad getting access
permissions, then move on.

Go to Settings > Accounts & Passwords > Add
Account again and tap on the Gmail, Yahoo, AOL or
Microsoft Outlook link. The process is the same and if you
have more than one web-based email account, you can
come back and add another later.
4
You’re asked to give various permissions. If you can’t
modify these permissions while you configure your
account, you can do so later by going back into Settings >
Accounts & Passwords. Agree, and you’re up and running
with your new email account on your iPad.
Set Up Web-based Email Accounts
You can set up and use a variety of free, web-based email accounts in Mail, including Gmail, Yahoo, AOL or Microsoft
Hotmail. Doing so is a little more complicated than setting up an iCloud account, but it’s still not too difficult.
Setting Up a Microsoft Exchange or Other Email Account.
To start the process of collecting email on your iPad if your account is hosted by a provider other than those listed on
this screen, or hosted via Microsoft Exchange, you will need to tap either the Other or the Microsoft Exchange link
respectively. 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 iPad. As these details are all different for each provider, we can, alas,
only send you in their direction for help. Check the support section of their website, or their telephone helpline.
