Automatic Email Setup for iPhone / iPad


Before you start:
A) If you don't have the email password, you can reset it here.
B) If automatic setup fails, you can also follow this guide to perform the setup manually.


Step 1 - Log into Webmail for the email account in question. You will need to log in from the iPhone/iPad that you're setting up the emails on.

Note: Alternatively, you can log into cPanel and navigate to Email Accounts then Connect Devices.


Step 2 (Optional) - If you have "Open my Inbox when I log in" enabled, you will need to select Webmail Home. Otherwise, proceed to Step 3.
