Solved: Adding a second email account on a Samsung Galaxy ...

Anonymous · ‎12-12-2012

Hi there. I am trying to add a secondary email account to my phone, the trouble is the new account is using the same POP3/SMTP settings as an existing account (pop.123-reg.co.uk and smtp.123-reg.co.uk) so my phone will not let me set up a second account, even though the email addresses are different.

Can someone please help!!!

Where you have the word "pop" change it to "imap". you will also need to change the port settings. Check your providers website for details or let me know who it is and I'll find them for you.
