Setting Up an Email Account on iPod touch

You can set up and make changes to an email account directly on iPod touch.

Your email service provider can provide the account settings you need to enter.

Changes you make on iPod touch to an email account synced from your computer are

not copied to your computer.

To use the online Mail Setup Assistant, go to:

www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/mailhelper

Enter account settings directly on iPod touch

1 If this is the first account you’re setting up on iPod touch, tap Mail. Otherwise, from the

Home screen choose Settings > Mail > Accounts > Add Account.

2 Choose your email account type: Y! Mail (for Yahoo!), Google email, .Mac, AOL,

or Other.

3 Enter your account information:

If you’re setting up a Yahoo!, Google email, .Mac, or AOL account, enter your name,

email address, and password. After that, you’re done.

Otherwise, click Other, select a server type—IMAP, POP, or Exchange—and enter your

account information:

Â Your email address

Â The email server type (IMAP, POP, or Exchange)

Â The Internet host name for your outgoing mail server (which may look like

“smtp.example.com”)

Â Your user name and password for incoming and outgoing servers (you may not need

to enter a user name and password for an outgoing server)

Note: Exchange email accounts must be configured for IMAP in order to work with

iPod touch. Contact your IT organization for more information.
