Configuring your email settings on your iPhone

This tutorial will show you how to configure your email settings on your iPhone.

First, locate and press the Settings icon. It may be on a different screen or in a different location than shown here.

Scroll down…

Then select Mail, Contacts, Calendars.

This is where you can configure all your email settings. Let’s go through some of the more common ones.

Press the Fetch New Data option

If your email service supports Push email, you can enable that feature by turning it on here

Alternatively, you can set your iPhone to Fetch your email at certain intervals… every 15, 30 or 60 minutes… or manually.

Press here to return to the Mail Settings screen

Scroll down…

From here you can choose how many messages to show at one time…

… how many Preview Lines to show…

You can adjust the font size…

… and whether or not to show the To and CC labels.

Enabling this option will send a copy of your sent messages to yourself, if you want to keep a copy of your sent messages elsewhere

You can setup your email signature…

… and choose which email account is to be your default account (if you have more than one)

Just about any setting you could want to change for your iPhone email, can be changed from these screens.

Let’s return to the home screen by pressing the Home button on the iPhone

That’s it! You now know how to configure your email settings on your iPhone.
