TIPS
If you should have a POP email not associated to most of the major accounts (such as ones set up directly by your Internet Service Provider), use the Other option. You'll then have to click the "Add Mail Account" underneath the "Mail" section heading.
You'll need to input your name, along with the email, password, description, and two addresses given by the server, so your device can contact the server. If you don't have these addresses, contact your Internet Service Provider for the details. Tell them your plan, that you are trying to set up your email on your phone, and need these SMTP (outgoing) and incoming mail addresses (IMAP/POP).
Plan on a few extra minutes setting up your settings to fix how it finds new emails, and how much information it shows to you, and a few other settings.
