Setting up an POP3 account with Apple iPhone

Summary:

If you are not running iOS 4, your screens may be slightly different. Here is a quick summary of the important settings to use:

Account Type: POP3
Email Address: username@kattare.com (your full email address)
Incoming Mail Server: mail.kattare.com
Incoming Mail User Name: (your POP3 username as displayed in the Email Management here.)
Incoming Mail Password: (your POP3 password from the same page.)
Outgoing Mail Server: mail.kattare.com, check USE AUTHENTICATION
Outgoing Mail User Name: (your POP3 username as displayed in the Email Management here.)
Outgoing Mail Password: (your POP3 password from the same page.)

And here are the step by step instructions:

Tap Settings on the Home screen, followed by Mail, Contacts, Calendars

Select Add Account and then choose Other on the following screen.

On the first screen you will enter some basic New Account information. Enter your name, POP3 email address, password and any description of the server you like in the Description field then tap Next

On the next screen, be sure that the account type POP is selected at the top. Under the Incoming Mail Server section, enter mail.kattare.com as the Host Name and your POP3 User Name and Password as you have been told by your local Systems Administrator, IT Guru, or the Kattare Members Section Email Management Page.

In the Outgoing Mail Server section, enter mail.kattare.com in the Host Name field, then fill in your User Name and Password exactly like you did in the Incoming Mail Server section. When finished, tap Next.

Despite having completed the assistant, there are still a couple of settings that will need to be changed to ensure trouble-free operation. To get started, tap your newly created account in the Settings for Mail, Contacts and Calendars.Tap on the Advanced button near the bottom of the account settings screen.

Tap Delete from server and select Seven days. This will ensure that you do not fill your email disk quota on the Kattare mail server but also allow you enough time to copy the messages from the mail server to another PC or mobile device.
