Dell XPS10 Windows RT

Anonymous
Not applicable

Hi,  new to all this.

 

Don't know if anyone can help ( the O2 Guru's can't!!!) I've got a Dell XPS 10 running Windows RT and their in built mail app. I've tried setting it up to pick up my O2 email but the only options I can get are for IMAP or Exchange Activesync (EAS) and not POP3 The only info I can get from O2 or the web seem to be for POP3 settings and therefore I can't connect. Does anyone know if O2 email can be accessed via IMAP and if so what are the server names and ports?

 

Any advice would be appreciated.

O2 email does not support imap, sorry.

However, you could pull your O2 mail through a Gmail account which does...?
