    sorry if this is a stupid question but how do you set up e-mail on the iphone4?

    On the first screen I have seen that the name is just whatever name you want to put on it.
    The address is the email address.
    Password is my e-mail password
    Description is whatever your email provider is, this comes up automatically.

    Next
    IMAP or POP (I'm ???@live.ie, so which do I pick?)
    What do I then put in the incoming mail server host name
    what do I put in the user name?
    Is the password my e-mail password

    Outgoing mail server:
    what goes in there?

    Sorry if this has come up before I couldn't find it in the search.

    I use Gmail on an iTouch so can't recommend the exact procedure for you but I believe you should get all the info you need here.....

    What do I then put in the incoming mail server host name? pop.live.com
