I’m unable to receive emails. I’ve deleted my account and reentered using step by step guide. Not even sure why this happened. I wasn’t having an issue and then all of a sudden I couldn’t send anything. I’m so frustrated! I need this for my business

Something changed on my SMTP server setup that will not allow me to send or receive mail on my iPhone 7 Optonline account. Can you tell me exactly what needs to be setup in the account settings to allow mail to come through? Thanks, Jenine

I changed the server to pop.optonline.net (even though not listed anywhere), and everything worked. SSL and port 995 incoming with password authentication. I can now finally send and receive email on my iPhone for my optonline account.
