How to setup ncsu email at IPod/IPhone

I have been scrolling web for quite some time to discover how can I setup my unity email and password on IPhone/IPODTouch. I finally got it and I am writing the procedure over here to save time for some other new students.

The steps to do it as follows :

  1. Go "SETTINGS" application of your IPod/IPhone
  2. Open-up "Mail,Contacts, Calenders" from there
  3. Select "Add Account..." from there
  4. Select "Other" from the options
  5. Add "name" as your name
  6. Select address as your email address "yourunityid@ncsu.edu" for eg "jhon@ncsu.edu"
  7. Press "Save", blue button at the top
  8. A pop will appear that certificate is not authenticate, press CONTINUE
  9. Next page will pop up
  10. Under the section incoming mail Server, for HOST NAME write : yourunityid.mail.ncsu.edu (eg : jhon.mail.ncsu.edu) as Host Name
  11. user name as yourunityid
  12. Under section Outgoing Mail Server for Host Name write ncsu.smtp.edu
  13. A Screen will pop up saying secure connection failed, Press Continue
  14. It will take about 30 Seconds to verify
Hurray you are done !!!!
