The main issue is that the mail client \u201ccannot verify server identity\u201d. This has mainly happened in recent releases of Mac iOS 10.2x, and it affects both IMAP and POP3 account types. The following solution is based on multiple reports\/posts from users and Apple support. Note that all of these solutions are based on the fact that you are using SSL for your email.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Depending on the software or device you are using, this error can be seen in various ways. The solutions for each type are listed below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"remove-and-add\">Removing and Re-adding your Mail account<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Apple\u2019s main suggestion for correcting this issue is to remove your email account and set it up again. Make sure that you know where your email is saved. If your email account is with InMotion, then deleting your email settings on iOS will not delete your email. You will remove your email account from your device and then re-add it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>POP3 Email accounts:<\/strong> If you are using a POP3 account and you have your email set to DELETE in 7 days, or when removed from Inbox, then there is the possibility that your emails will be deleted after deleting your account from the iPhone\/iOS device. If you set it to NEVER, your emails will still be on the server, but you may need to set the fetch to manual to get the emails immediately. Otherwise, you may need to wait 15 minutes, 30 minutes, or hourly, depending on your selected setting in <strong>Fetch New data<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"article_list wp-block-list\"><li>Log into your iOS device.<\/li><li>Go to <strong style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">Settings<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\"> then tap on <\/span><strong style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">Mail<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">.<\/span><br><br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"444\" class=\"wp-image-97450\" style=\"width: 250px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1.png\" alt=\"iOS settings page of an iPhone\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1.png 1242w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1-169x300.png 169w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1-576x1024.png 576w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1-768x1365.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1-864x1536.png 864w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-2-apple-mail-error_choose-mail1-1152x2048.png 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><div style=\"clear: both;\"><li>Tap on <strong style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">Accounts<\/strong><span style=\"font-size: revert; color: initial;\">.<\/span><br><br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"444\" class=\"wp-image-97453\" style=\"width: 250px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts.png\" alt=\"iOS Settings, Mail page on an iPhone, with the Accounts section highlighted\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts.png 1242w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts-169x300.png 169w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts-576x1024.png 576w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts-768x1365.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts-864x1536.png 864w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-3-apple-mail-error_choose-accounts-1152x2048.png 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><div style=\"clear: both;\"><li>Click on the email account that you wish to remove.<br><br><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"250\" height=\"444\" class=\"wp-image-97456\" style=\"width: 250px;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete.png\" alt=\"iOS Mail Settings Accounts Page on an iPhone, listing multiple accounts\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete.png 1242w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete-169x300.png 169w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete-576x1024.png 576w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete-768x1365.png 768w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete-864x1536.png 864w, https:\/\/www.inmotionhosting.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/06\/step-4-apple-mail-error_select-account-delete-1152x2048.png 1152w\" sizes=\"auto, (min-width: 1360px) 876px, (min-width: 960px) calc(61.58vw + 51px), calc(100vw - 80px)\" \/><div style=\"clear: both;\"><li>Slide the window up and you will see the option to delete the account at the bottom of the screen.
