			'''4)''' We are only adding a mail account, so press the ''Add Mail Account'' button next.

			'''5)''' Now you will be putting in all of the information the email client requires. First, select from the top whether to use the ''IMAP'' or ''POP'' protocol; we always advise using IMAP on mobile devices, and your email will not operate properly if configured with POP on multiple devices.

			Next, create the display name and short description of the account by filling in the ''Name'' and ''Description'' fields respectively.

			You will have to set the ''Host Name'' of both the inbound and outbound mailserver to '''"mail.bravehost.com"''', minus the quotations.

			Finally, ensure that both mailservers are using the full email address as the username, and that you have put the correct password in for both servers. It should appear quite similar to the below image.

			'''6)''' The email account is now created! You will see it listed in the ''Mail, Contacts, Calendars'' section of the ''Settings'' app, and may change the emails configuration settings at any point from the same location!

New page

This page assumes you have already [[Creating a new e-mail account | created an e-mail address]] and have not yet configured your iPhone with any e-mail addresses (if you currently have other e-mail addresses associated with your phone, please first read the note at the bottom of this page).

1. Tap the "Mail" icon on your phone. You will see the below screen, at which point you will want to tap "Other".

[[Image:iphone1.jpg]]

2. Tap "Add Mail Account" at the top of the next screen under the "Mail" heading, then fill in your details and tap "Save" when ready. The e-mail address and password will need to be exactly as you entered them in your Bravenet account.

[[Image:iphone2.jpg]]

If you think you made a mistake here but saved the details, don't worry - you can change them in the next step.

3. Because Bravenet offers POP3 e-mail addresses, make sure you tap POP at the top of the next screen. All that is required now is to fill in the incoming (POP3) and outgoing (SMTP) mail server information to complete configuration!

These server details are specific to your domain. The below screenshot shows how this information should be entered, where "yourdomain.com" is replaced with the registered domain associated with this e-mail address.

[[Image:iphone3.jpg]]

The Incoming mail server username will be your full e-mail address. When this information has been entered, tap "Save" again to complete configuration! Your phone may take a moment to verify this information and make an initial connection to the mail servers. If this is a brand new e-mail address, please allow some extra time for the connection to be made.

4. You can now access your inbox by tapping the "Mail" icon. You should immediately receive an automatic welcome message from us with some details you can use if you need assistance, and to verify that your inbox is properly receiving mail.
