How to correctly setup Roadrunner email on iPhone
For some reason my email stopped working correctly after I updated to iOS5. It took some searching, but I found settings directly from Roadrunner themselves and wanted to share them. They are:
To send Road Runner Web Mail from your iPhone & iPad®:
- On your iPhone or iPad® select Settings.
