User Guide

Changes you make to an account’s settings on iPhone aren’t synced to your computer,
so you can congure your accounts to work with iPhone without aecting the account
settings on your computer.
Stop using an account service: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” choose an account,
then turn an account service (such as Mail, Calendars, or Notes) o.
If an account service is o, iPhone doesn’t display or sync information with that
account service until you turn it back on.
Adjust advanced settings: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” choose an account,
then do one of the following:
 To set whether drafts, sent messages, and deleted messages are stored on iPhone or
remotely on your email server (IMAP accounts only), tap Advanced and choose Drafts
Mailbox, Sent Mailbox, or Deleted Mailbox.
If you store messages on iPhone, you can see them even when iPhone isn’t
connected to the Internet.
 To set how long before messages are removed permanently from Mail on iPhone, tap
Advanced and tap Remove, then choose a time: Never, or after one day, one week,
or one month.
 To adjust email server settings, tap Host Name, User Name, or Password under
Incoming Mail Server or Outgoing Mail Server. Ask your network administrator or
Internet service provider for the correct settings.
 To adjust SSL and password settings, tap Advanced. Ask your network administrator or
Internet service provider for the correct settings.
Delete an account from iPhone: Choose “Mail, Contacts, Calendars,” choose an
account, then scroll down and tap Delete Account.
Deleting an account means you can no longer access the account with your iPhone.
All email and the contacts, calendar, and bookmark information synced with the
account are removed from iPhone. However, deleting an account doesn’t remove the
account or its associated information from your computer.
Fetch New Data
This setting lets you turn Push on or o for MobileMe, Microsoft Exchange, Yahoo!,
and any other push accounts on iPhone. Push accounts deliver new information to
iPhone whenever new information appears on the server (some delays may occur).
You might want to turn Push o to suspend delivery of email and other information, or
to conserve battery life.
When Push is o, and with accounts that don’t support push, data can still be
fetched—that is, iPhone can check with the server and see if new information is
available. Use the Fetch New Data setting to determine how often data is requested.
For optimal battery life, don’t fetch too often.
