Tap the "Settings" button on your iPad home screen. If you have installed custom applications from the Apple AppStore, this button may be located on a different home screen than the one pictured. By default, it is on your main home screen.

This is the main Settings screen. You will need to scroll down to the section labelled "Mail, Contacts, Calendars" as pictured. Tap "Mail, Contacts, Calendars".

If you have already configured an email account on your iPad, you will need to tap the "Add Account..." label shown. If you have not configured any mail accounts on your iPad simply skip to the next step.

Tap the "Other" option at the bottom of the list.

Enter in the information requested. In the password field, enter the password for your email account.

When you have entered in all of the requested information, tap the "Save" button.

Choose either "IMAP" or "POP" for your email service. Choosing IMAP will keep messages in sync between your iPad and your other mailboxes on other devices. Choosing POP will provide you with slightly faster download times, but your messages will not be synchronized with your other mailboxes. We recommend using IMAP.

To configure the Incoming Mail Server details, enter in your username and password in the form of:

Host Name: mail.hover.com
User Name: your full email address
Password: your email password

For example, for the email address "ross@ultrarider.ca" I would enter in the following details:

Host Name: mail.hover.com
User Name: ross@ultrarider.ca
Password: "My Email Password"

Scroll down to the "Outgoing Mail Server" section.

To configure the Outgoing Mail Server details, repeat what you did in the previous step and enter in your username and password in the form of:

Host Name: mail.hover.com
User Name: your full email address
Password: your email password

For example, for the email address "ross@ultrarider.ca" I would enter in the following details:

Host Name: mail.hover.com
User Name: ross@ultrarider.ca
Password: "My Email Password"

Tap the "Save" button when you are finished.

If you encounter this error message, simply tap the "Continue" button.

Your iPad will now attempt to verify the details that you entered. Be patient, this step could take a little bit of time.

After your iPad has verified the account details that you provided, your account will be listed in the configuration section under "Mail, Contacts, Calendar" in the Settings application. You can change the behavior of your mailbox by tapping the account name you just created and by changing the other options displayed.
