Additional Tips:

• If you're having trouble connecting to your email account, try restarting your iPhone or checking your email account settings on your email provider's website.
• If you're using a third-party email client, such as Microsoft Outlook, you may need to change settings within that app instead of the Mail app.
• If you're experiencing issues with your email account, you can try resetting your email account settings by going to Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > Accounts > [Account Name] > Delete Account, and then re-adding your account.
