Setting up your email on an Android phone is a straightforward process. In this article, we'll guide you through the steps to configure your email using the default mail client on an Android device, such as a Samsung phone. This guide is based on the latest version of Android to ensure compatibility and ease of use.

Step 1: Create Your Email Account in cPanel

You need an active email account before you can set up your email on your Android phone. If you haven't already created an email account, follow these simple steps:

1. Visit the WHMCS clientarea at intoHOST Clientarea.

1. Log in with your credentials.
2. Once logged in, click on the 'Login to cPanel' option.

1. In cPanel, navigate to the Email section and click 'Email Accounts'.

Step 2: Accessing Email Configuration Details

After creating your email account in cPanel:

1. Go back to the Email Accounts section.
2. Find your newly created email account and click on 'Connect Devices'.

1. Here, you will find the necessary IMAP/POP3 and SMTP settings that you'll need for your Android phone.

Step 3: Setting Up Email on Your Android Phone

With your email account ready and settings in hand, let's set up your email on the Android device:

1. Locate the Default Email App:
First, find the default email client on your Android phone. It's typically labeled as 'Email' or 'Mail' and can be found in your app drawer. Or you can go to 'Settings' and then 'Add Account'. Choose 'Other' as the account type.

3. Enter Your Email Address:
Type in your full email address and tap 'Next'.

4. Select Account Type:
Choose the type of email account you are setting up. Most users will select 'IMAP' for its flexibility and synchronization features.

5. Enter Account Details:
Input your password and other required details. Your incoming and outgoing server settings will usually be configured automatically. If not, you'll need to enter them manually. You can find these details in our knowledge base article on setting up a new email account using cPanel.

6. Finalize Settings:
You may be prompted to set up additional preferences, such as account sync frequency and notifications. Customize these based on your preference.

7. Complete the Setup:
Once everything is entered, your phone will verify the settings and complete the setup process if everything is correct. Here is a summary of the setup so far:

1. Open the default mail client on your Android phone.
2. Go to 'Settings' and then 'Add Account'.
3. Choose 'Other' as the account type.
4. Enter your email address and password created via cPanel.
5. Select 'Manual Setup' and choose between IMAP or POP3.
6. Enter the incoming server settings (IMAP/POP3) that you noted earlier from cPanel.
7. Proceed to enter the outgoing server settings (SMTP).

IMAP syncs your email with the server, while POP3 downloads emails locally. Choose based on your preference.

8. Once all details are entered, your phone will verify the settings.
9. After successful verification, your email account is set up and ready to use!
