These instructions are for setting up email on an iPhone or iPad using IOS 14.

          From the Home menu on your iPhone tap on the Settings icon.



Slide down your settings page and tap on Mail.



Tap on "Add account" to start the account creation process.



Tap Other.



Tap "Add Mail Account".



Name: The name you wish your emails to come from.

Address: Your full email address. Your email address should be something like "name@yourstore.spiffystores.com", and is displayed as your "User Name" in the Preferences > Email accounts section of your store's admin area.

Description: If you're using your own domain name in your store, you can set this to be the "email address on your own domain that you've created. e.g. hello@yourstore.com.au

Password: The password you have set for this mailbox.

When you have entered these details, tap "Next" and your device will attempt to automatically connect. It will then show an area where you enter your incoming and outgoing server details.







Spiffy Stores uses POP (POP3) mail for our email servers, so tap that and make sure it's highlighted in blue as shown on the left.

You'll want to change the Email field to the email address you want people to see. e.g. hello@yourstore.com.au



Incoming Mail Server Settings for Spiffy Stores are; 

Host Name: mail.spiffystores.com

Username: Your username should be your full Spiffy Stores email address as it appears in your store toolbox on the "Preferences -> Email Accounts" page, e.g. "joe@joeswidgets.spiffystores.com".

Password: The password that you set when you created your mailbox.

Outgoing Mail Server Settings for Spiffy Stores are;

Host Name: mail.spiffystores.com

Username: The full email address you are setting up(e.g. you@yourstore.spiffystores.com)

Password: The password that you set when you created your mailbox.


Note that although this section says it is optional, you MUST enter your username and password here to be able to send mail.

When you have entered these details, tap "SAVE".
Now select the 'Mail' app and commence using your email.



Using an email address on own your domain

Once your account has been configured using your "@yourstore.spiffystores.com" details, you can now safely update the "Email address" field to the email address that is on your domain, but in all cases the username must always be in the "@yourstore.spiffystores.com" format.
