Please note: Steps may vary depending on the model of iPhone/iPad you’re using and the iOS software version running on your device.
The steps below are completed entirely on the phone, using the Safari web browser.
1. Browse to applemailsetup.com using the Safari web browser app on your iPhone. Once the page has loaded type your email address into the address field then tap ‘Download Setup File’.
2. After completing the initial step, the application automatically generates an install profile for you. Next, it prompts you to install it, as shown in the screenshot.
Tap ‘Install’ to continue.
3. A warning will be displayed, indicating that the profile is not signed by Apple.
