New Verizon Email Settings for iPad Mail
Verizon has recently changed the email settings to the following and Apple needs to update the database of the common email settings for the device setup.
Incoming mail server (POP3): pop.verizon.net
Incoming Server Port Numbers: 995
Outgoing mail server (SMTP): smtp.verizon.net
Outgoing Server Port Numbers: 465 Why is this important?
Make sure SSL encryption is enabled for the incoming and outgoing mail server.
When I add the Verizon mail account from Apple Mail on the iPad it automatically sets POP3 to incoming.verizon.net port 110 and SMTP to outgoing.verizon.net port 25. This is no longer correct and will stop working in the future. When will Apple update the settings database to reflect the new settings to avoid having to manually edit the email settings after adding the Verizon account to Apple Mail.
