Hi,

I recently purchased an iPhone 4. I see a lot of features in it, like setting up of my email account but somehow,

I am unable to do so.

Will appreciate if someone can give an insight on this.

Hi,

To begin using your mail account, on your iPhone, you first need to add the account to your iPhone.

To do so follow the below steps:

1. Open the Mail icon by tapping it.
2. Look for your account type. If it's not available then choose Other.
3. Next, fill in your account details and save it.

Your mail is now setup for use.

Setting up my mail account on iPhone

Thanks.

It worked just fine for me, as I was setting up my Gmail account on it.

As I am mostly away from my laptop, can you tell me, if I can setup multiple accounts on my iPhone?

Setting up my mail account on iPhone

Thanks for your prompt response.

Another concern – I have heard from a lot of other iPhone users that their mailbox gets locked,

while accessing the mails from different devices.

What is the solution for this problem?

Setting up my mail account on iPhone

There are different ways to resolve this problem.

• You can close your mail account on your computer, when you are not accessing it.
• You can alter the mail fetch interval, between your laptop/desktop and your iPhone. This can be done, by using the 'fetch new data' option under the settings icon.
• If still the mail account gets locked, then quit the mail client from all the devices. Go to the home screen of your iPhone. Wait for around 10 mins or more and try logging in again.
