Setting up POP email on an iPhone can be hassle
Especially if you have plugged your iPhone into your PC and synchronised it with iTunes
If you have activated your iPhone with iTunes on your PC you may have synchronised your email settings.
You will almost certainly have problems sending email via your SMTP server – especially when you are out roaming and relying on your mobile network.
If you wish to have pure synchronised Mail (including all folders like Sent Items) and Contacts and Calendar then read about our corporate style Xmail Service
We suggest you might want to begin by deleting the email account your iTunes synchronisation may have copied from your PC.

is blue (select it if it isn’t)
9. Now complete you Host Name, User Name and Password for your Incoming Mail Server

11. When the Save button turns blue you can select
12. You will now probably get a message something like this…
