# How to configure Smartermail Email account on an Android device

Your new email account can be easily configured on your smartphone device!
 Before you can access your email account through your mobile phone, the email mobile app will require some specific configuration.
 Here is the information you will need:

**Name**: the name of your email user *(e.g. John Smith)*
 **Address**: your email address *(e.g. user@yourdomainname.com)*
 **Password**: the password for your email address.
 **Description**: a short description of your email account *(e.g. John’s Mail)*
 **POP/IMAP/SMTP/Host Name Server**:  smartermail.myownserver.net

 

## To set up your email on an Android phone:

1. Open the **Settings** app

3. Provide the email address (user@yourdomain.com) and press **MANUAL SETUP**
4. Next, you will be able to choose the type of email account you will be using
    We recommend the IMAP protocol because it will keep your messages on the server after you download them on a local device.

    **Username**: [user@yourdomain.com](mailto:user@yourdomain.com)
    **Password**: the password for your email account
    **Port** and **Security Type**: Select **IMAP**, and then:
    **Secure** - Port: 993 and Security Type: SSL/TLS (recommended)
    **Insecure** - Port: 143 and Security Type: None 
7. When you complete filling in the information, tap **Next**, and continue with the outgoing server settings:
    **Username**: [user@yourdomain.com](mailto:user@yourdomain.com)
    **Password**: the password for your email account
    **Port & Security Type****Secure**: Port 587 and Security Type: SSL/TLS
    **Insecure**: Port: 25 and Security Type: None 
8. Tap **Next** and choose the preferred sync frequency options.
9. Lastly, press **Next** and your email account will be ready to use with your phone.
