Add/setup email account on Blackberry 10

This tutorial will show you how to set up a JetHost PRO email account on Blackberry 10x device.

We will be using a test email account email@yourdomain.com. Of course you will have your own email address so substitute that in the appropriate places. 

 

NOTE: Before proceeding, make sure you have a mailbox created.

 

In order to set up an email account via IMAP/POP3/SMTP protocols, the following actions should be done: 

1. Open Settings on your Blackberry device and tap on Accounts menu:

3. On the next screen, you will need to choose whether you wish to configure IMAP or POP3 account. Just select the desired option by tapping IMAP or POP3 correspondingly:

  • Sync Interval, Sync Timeframe: the interval when mail client sends query to the server in order to find new messages 
  • Roaming Data Control, Cellular Data Control and Wi-Fi Data Control: used for data control (it helps to decrease traffic of your mobile network)


6. Once everything is filled in tap on Done in order to finish setting up:
