iMac email set up help needed.

[Phil White]

I've just bought a new 5k iMac and can't figure out how to set it up to send and receive emails from my blueyonder.co.uk account.

Can anyone please help me with this.

You can add email accounts in System Preferences (Internet Accounts) or Mail.

Mail will attempt to retrieve the correct settings for your provider, but here's the link to the support website:

If you get stuck, remember all new iMacs come with 90 days of free phone support from AppleCare

Thing to remember as well, when I set my macbook up previously, 1 e-mail account went through a dream, the other for whatever reason, took a little longer to accept and pull everything down - never got to the bottom of it, more frustrating as both BT e-mail addresses...

Both work well and no issues since.
