Hello, cmkrjk.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
There could be a couple causes for this and I will include a couple solutions. Sometimes the account credentials need to be authenticated and can cause this message. Try forcing all applications to close and power cycle the device. Two step verification may be enabled causing this error, try checking if this feature is enabled, disable and test. The last solutions I could recommend would be in the second article and third article below.

iPad Mail

Configuration problems with IMAP e-mail on iOS with a non-standard SSL port.
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
