Q: Can't set up a pop3 account on my ipad mini.
I am trying to set up a pop3 account on my ipad (IOS 9.3.2) but after I fill out the name. email address, password and description then tap next Next on the New Account screen the system insists on setting up an IMAP account. I thought I was supposed to get a screen that would allow me to choose POP or IMAP. Is there a way force POP?
iPad Mini, iOS 9.3.2

To get around this put in a fake email address when setting it up, ios6 will then try to autodiscover the account settings when it cant it will ask you to fill in the server details and you can select pop or imap.
