Any other email address

If the email address is for a Microsoft Exchange-based email account, choose Microsoft Exchange.

For all other email addresses, choose Other (or Other Mail Account) and follow the onscreen steps to manually set up your account. You might need to enter mail server addresses and other information, which you can get from your email service provider. Our Mail Settings Lookup tool might also provide that information.
