Email settings DO NOT WORK WITH iOS Devices

[Bruce-Andrew]

Vz keeps sending these "important" instructions for email port settings, BUT they do not work with iOS devices--iPhones and iPads. Last go around with this I spent over 16 hours trying to reconcile until an Apple Expert discovered "special" instructions for iOS device settings. Get with the program, Verizon.

So what are the special instructions?

Let iOS choose the port and other settings. It works, but who knows what will happen when Vz says they will no longer support those settings. No one at Vz knows!

I changed the settings on my iOS per Verizon's email last night, and it didn't work.  So I changed the settings back again (incoming.verizon.net and outgoing,verizon.net).  Incoming works fine, but outgoing is now "inactive."  So frustrated!  Anyone able to help? TIA.
