It seems like everyone is getting an iPhone now and we get asked often, how to setup the iPhone to work with our District 6 Mail server. Here are some (hopefully) simple steps to making that happen.
1) Click on the Settings Icon.
2) Scroll down and click on “Mail, Contacts, Calendars”
3) Click on “Add Account….”
4) Click on “Microsoft Exchange”
5) In the Email section, enter your email address
Leave Domain Blank
For the Username, enter your email address
For the Password, enter your district password and press the “Next” button at the top right of that screen.
6)Wait a minute or so and a prompt will pop up. Push “Accept”.
7) Now, in the Server box, type in “mail.district6.org” and push the “Next” button.
VERY IMPORTANT
- On this screen you need to select what options you want synced. You will need to at least select “Mail”. Most people will want to also select “Contacts” and “Calendars” too. NOTE: If you select Contacts, it will overwrite the contacts you have on your iPhone with the Contacts you have in Zimbra. Just make sure that’s what you want before you do it. If you have what you want selected, hit “Done”.
9) Now you should see your new account listed in your Accounts Page. Now click on the Home Button and you can now check your mail. Have fun.
