- In the following menu, click "account settings" to change the connection settings.
- Depending on the type of device, your Smartphone shows you the connection settings. Other manufacturers, such as Samsung, you need to scroll down and hit "More settings" button. Under "incoming mail server" and "outgoing mail server" you will find the settings.
- Now check whether the incoming mail server at the time of encryption, SSL or SSL/TLS is set. If not, change the. Depending on the Protocol, you might need to change the Port to 995 (POP3) or 993 (SMTP), if this happens automatically.
