How to Set up Email on iPad

The iPad comes with an email client already installed, which makes it convenient to add your email to the device. Instead of having to download a separate app for your preferred email provider (Google, Yahoo, etc.), you can add your email account to the existing mail client. It’s handy if you have multiple email accounts.

How to Manually Setup Email on iPad

If you don’t see your account provider listed in Step 3 above, you can choose Other to set your account up manually. Here’s how to do it that way: On older versions of iOS, you may need to go to Settings > Passwords and Accounts. If Mail cannot detect your account settings, you are prompted to enter your IMAP or POP settings for your account. Enter the requested information into the next form and tap Next. If the connection is unsuccessful, you’ll need to edit them and try again. Once all the information is correct, it will connect your account to Mail, and you can receive your messages in the Mail app.
