iPhone email settings

iPhone email Setup

Before you start, you need to set up an email account within the control panel. Please see our instructions for this here.

On your iPhone, please do the following (and replace domain-name-here.co.uk with your own domain)...

In settings, select "mail, contacts, calendars. Select "Add account" followed by "Other".
Select "Add mail account" and fill in your details e.g...
name: Bob Cratchit --- your own name or company name goes here
address: bob@domain-name-here.co.uk --- You could choose an address such as info@domain-name-here.co.uk here if you've set up a forwarder
password: ********
Description: domain-name-here.co.uk
Click [next]. Make sure that IMAP is highlighted and fill in the mail server settings...
Incoming...
host name: servername.visn.co.uk --- please check this from your instructions.
user name: bob@domain-name-here.co.uk
password: ********

Outgoing...
host name: servername.visn.co.uk --- please check this from your instructions.
user name: bob@domain-name-here.co.uk
password: ********
Click [next]. The rest should be self explanatory from this point and you should be able to collect (and view) emails via the mail function on the phone.
We recommend a further modification for dealing with trash AFTER checking mail for the first time. From the 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' menu, select the account you've just added and select it again near the top of the screen. Scroll to the bottom and click 'Advanced' then choose 'Deleted Mailbox'. Now select the 'Trash' folder on the server.

Note: Please bear in mind that it can take 24-48 hours for new domain name settings to filter through the Internet and nobody will be able to send emails to you until this has happened.
