Tip: Depending on your email account, you can also sync other items than just emails

to your phone, such as your contacts and calendar.

If your phone doesn't find your email settings, advanced setup can find them. For this, you

need to know your email account type and the addresses of your incoming and outgoing

email servers. You can get this information from your email service provider.
To find out more about setting up different email accounts, go to support.microsoft.com,

and browse to the instructions for Windows phones.
Add an account later

Tap Outlook Mail > > Accounts > Add account and the account type, and sign

in.

Tip: To add your Exchange work email, contacts, and calendar to your phone, select

Exchange as your account, write your work email address and password, and tap Sign

in.

Your new account is added to your Outlook inbox.
Delete an account

Tap Outlook Mail > > Accounts and the account you want to delete.
You can’t remove the Outlook inbox that’s associated with your Microsoft account. If you want

to remove the inbox (for example, if you’re going to sell your phone), you must reset your

phone. Make sure you back up everything you need to your Microsoft account before

resetting.
