To set up the outgoing mail server for Gmail on your iPad, you'll need to configure your email client to use Gmail's SMTP server. Here are the steps:

For the Mail app on iPad:

  1. Open the Mail app on your iPad.
  2. Tap on the "Mail" button in the top left corner to go back to the inbox.
  3. Tap on "Settings" (looks like a gear icon).
  4. Scroll down and tap on "Accounts".
  5. Tap on "Add Account".
  6. Select "Other" as the account type.
  7. Enter your name, email address, and password.
  8. Tap on "Next".
  9. Tap on "SMTP" as the account type.
  10. Enter the following settings:
    • Host: smtp.gmail.com
    • Port: 587
    • User Name: your Gmail address
    • Password: your Gmail password
    • Authentication: Password
  11. Tap on "Next" and then "Save".

For other email clients on iPad:

If you're using a third-party email client like Spark, Microsoft Outlook, or Airmail, the steps may vary slightly. Here are some general guidelines:

  1. Open your email client and go to the settings or preferences.
  2. Look for the "Outgoing Mail Server" or "SMTP" settings.
  3. Enter the following settings:
    • Host: smtp.gmail.com
    • Port: 587
    • User Name: your Gmail address
    • Password: your Gmail password
    • Authentication: Password
  4. Save your changes.

Note: If you're using two-factor authentication (2FA) with your Gmail account, you may need to generate an App Password and use that instead of your regular password.

That's it! Your iPad should now be configured to use Gmail's outgoing mail server.
