You can set up your mail account on an iPhone in two ways:

To set up a mail account on an iPhone manually:
-
Go to Settings > Password & Accounts.
-
Tap Add Account.

-
The password of your email account.
-
(Optional) Your account description.

-
To keep the copies of email messages on the server, tap IMAP at the top of the screen. If you do not want to keep them on the server, tap POP. Then specify the details of your incoming and outgoing mail servers and tap Next:
-
Your domain name in the «Host Name» field, for example, example.com.
-
The name of your email account in the «Username» field, for example, john@example.com.
-
The password of your email account.
-
-
Once the email configuration is added, tap Save. The connection to the specified server will be verified.
-
Once the connection is verified, choose what information you want to sync with your phone and tap Save.

Your iPhone will then verify your account information. Once it is finished, you will be taken to the «Mail» screen. Your account will now be listed in the Accounts section.
Nota: Se si riscontrano difficoltà relative alla sincronizzazione dei messaggi, è possibile configurare manualmente la corrispondenza della cartelle. Per farlo, seleziona l’account appena creato ed entra nella sezione Avanzata. In questa sezione è possibile scegliere una casella di controllo (Bozze, Inviate, Eliminate, Archivio) e selezionare una cartella corrispondente sul server. In questo modo le cartelle saranno in sincronizzazione a prescindere da dove o come si accede alla posta elettronica.
