How to Setup Another Personal Email Account Aside From Gmail on Samsung Galaxy S3

 You can also setup another personal email account on your Samsung Galaxy S3 via POP (Post Office Protocol) or IMAP (Internet Message Access Protocol) options.  In these option you can send an email email using mobile data settings. But the downside of these option is that it only works when connected via WIFI and the phone deletes the account daily and it needs to be recreated. As different wifi connections have different SMTP server settings it makes sense to set up and use mobile data settings for sending emails however as wifi overrides mobile data you need to manually turn off wifi to send an email.

But if you want to setup an email account you can simply do it as follows:

  • Tap on Apps
  • Tap on the "Email" icon
  • Tap on the box and type in your email address username and then the password
  • Tap on Next
  • Select server type which POP3 Outgoing Server Settings
  • Ask from your email service provider and fill in the incoming email server settings and tap Next.
  • Type in your email username on the box
  • Fill in in your email's incoming email server. Select None for Security Type 
  • Type in your outgoing email server. Select None again for security type.
  • Put a tick on the box that says "Require Sign In"
  • Tap on Next.
  • Select your desired time for Email check frequency for your phone to check and retrieve emails. 
  • Tick Sync Email and tick Notify me when email arrives.
  • Type the display or sender name you want and then tap on Done
  • Done
