However, your iPhone will not save Drafts or Sent mail on the server, nor will it allow you delete mail (other than by manually moving the message to the Trash folder). For this, you need to configure mailbox behaviors.<\/p>\n<p>In the\u00a0<strong>Accounts<\/strong> section under\u00a0<strong>Mail, Contacts, and Calendar<\/strong>, click on the account you just created, and scroll down to the bottom. Click\u00a0<strong>Advanced<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p>At the top, you will see a section labeled &#8220;Mailbox Behaviors&#8221;. Select &#8220;Drafts Mailbox&#8221;. In the &#8220;On the Server&#8221; section, select your &#8220;Drafts&#8221;. Go back and set &#8220;Sent Mailbox&#8221; to &#8220;Sent&#8221; and &#8220;Deleted Mailbox&#8221; to &#8220;Trash&#8221; (again, choosing the one on the server, not the iPhone selection at the very top). You may also configure it to automatically delete messages from the Trash after a day, a week, or a month, if you so desire.<\/p>\n<h3>Checking your email<\/h3>\n<p>Now, to check your email, you should just hit the\u00a0<strong>Home<\/strong> button on your iPhone and then tap the\u00a0<strong>Mail<\/strong> button at the bottom of your home screen to launch the Mail application. The Mail application should then begin checking your email account automatically and you&#8217;ll soon (depending on whether you&#8217;re connected to 3G, EDGE, or Wifi) hear a notification hum and see the number of unread messages (if any) appear next to the name of the email account on the list. Tapping that account will open up a new page that displays the folders contained under that address. Tap on the\u00a0<strong>Inbox<\/strong> to view all messages there, or tap another folder name to see those messages.<\/p>\n<p>That&#8217;s it!
