If you managed to delete the Apple Mail App from your iPad, it can be reinstalled from the Apple App Store:

After reinstalling the Mail App, you can add your email account(s):

Settings > Mail > Add Account



Be aware that some email providers now require the use of App Specific Passwords when accessing mail over IMAP or POP3. If this applies to your email account, you will need to generate a unique password for your iPad email account - that will differ from your normal Account Password. As examples - AOL, Yahoo, Google, Microsoft all use App Specific Passwords when using anything other than their own email client Apps.


Microsoft accounts include live.comoutlook.com and hotmail.com domains.


If you need to generate an App Specific Password, you’ll need to log-in to your Mail Providers account management webpage - using a web browser - and generate the Password from the appropriate account security page.
