Altering account settings
The last group of settings we explore in this chapter deals with your e-mail accounts. You most
likely will never need most of these settings, but we'd be remiss if we didn't at least mention them
briefly. So here they are, whether you need 'em or not:
To stop using an e-mail account:
Tap the Settings icon on the Home screen; tap Mail,
Contacts, Calendars
⇒
Account Name
and flip the switch so that Mail is turned off. As a re-
minder that Mail is on, you see green by the Mail switch. Otherwise the switch is gray.
This setting doesn't delete the account; it only hides it from view and stops it
from sending or checking e-mail until you turn it on again. (You can repeat this step to turn
off Calendars, Contacts, Reminders, and Notes within a given account.)
To delete an e-mail account:
Tap the Settings icon on the Home screen; tap Mail, Contacts,
Calendars
⇒
Account Name
⇒
DeleteAccount
⇒
Delete. TapCancelifyouchangeyourmindand
don't want your account blown away.
You can find still more advanced Mail settings, reached the same way: Tap the Settings icon on the
Home screen; tap Mail, Contacts, Calendars; and then tap the name of the account you want to work
with.
The settings you see under Advanced (sometimes shown as Advanced Settings) and
how they appear vary by account. This list describes some of the settings you might see:
To specify how long until deleted messages are removed permanently from your iPad:
Tap Advanced
⇒
Remove. Your choices are Never, After One Day, After One Week, and After
One Month. Tap the choice you prefer.
