Enter the Password for your email account.

Enter a Description for the new account, then click Next.


Choose the IMAP protocol for the account type.

This is where you have to define your server settings for both your incoming and your outgoing mail.

Enter your Incoming Mail Server Host Name: mailx.hosts.net.nz

Enter your full email address in the Username field and enter the password for your email account.

Enter your Outgoing Mail Server Host Name: mailx.hosts.net.nz

Enter your full email address in the Username field and enter the password for your email account.
