iPad e-mail set-up; POP vs. IMAP
My iPad email was originally set-up using a POP account default from our internet provider, but I want to change this to IMAP to allow me to sync with more devices. I deleted the provider account on the Mail/Accounts screen, restarted the iPad, then went to install the provider account info with their IMAP settings (port number, domain/server name, etc.). My problem is that the "Add Account" set-up automatically finds my old POP account information and won't let me manually add the new/IMAP information. It sees my email address and insists on setting me up with POP as it was before! Somehow I fluked into a choice between POP and IMAP when updating the provider account information on my iPhone (and it works like a charm!), but cannot find such a IMAP/POP choice setting on the iPad. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
iPad, iPadOS 15
