I can’t access my email on my iPhone

[Lezmanning]

Hi there, I am having trouble with my Tiscali emails , they are not coming through any more in my iPhone. I have updated my password , I can access them on the web. I have a iPhone 14 iOS 16.3. It keeps asking for my password. I have tried to delete and re add the account to my iPhone. It will not work. Please help!

Hi Lez, its not been done yet. I've been on leave and then on a different workstream. I'll chase it now for you.

Hi Lez

The estimated 48 hours from Ady's confirmation is working week time so I'd expect the switch on of IMAP access to happen by Monday afternoon, Tuesday at the latest if there have been delays.

[Lezmanning]

Hi Ady,

Do you have an update on when my account will be restored? It should have been done by now I believe. 
thanks Lez

[Lezmanning]

Hi Ady, Thank you for confirming.

Hi Ady, Thanks so much! Appreciate your help. Lez

Hi Lez, I've added your mailbox to those to be restored to normal function. Please allow 48 hours for the change to complete.

TalkTalk Support will respond here and in a couple of days, so hopefully by the end of the week, your iPhone will authenticate the password and you'll be able to get mail via the iPhone app as well as webmail.

Thank you ☺️ 

I have now added my email address in the private notes section. Is this everything I need to do? 
what happens next? 
Thank you

Hi,

I can’t find that information. I don’t no where the section is for private notes etc. Can you guide me please? Thank you Lez

The secure mail settings are now spot on perfect for the iPhone so I've asked that full access is restored for the tiscali mailbox email address that you will need to have added to your Community profile, Personal information, Private notes. (Do check it's there - I don't believe it is currently). TalkTalk will need to know the tiscali email address so that access can be switched back on.

TalkTalk Support will respond here and then restore IMAP4 / POP3 access as soon as reasonably possible. Until full access is switched back on, use TalkTalk Mail webmail via an up to date Internet browser to keep in touch with email contacts.

Dear Gondola,

Thank you again for your reply. Please see screen shots. I have made the changes you advised and we are still getting the error message. Can you do the request with talk talk please? 
thank you

Unfortunately, the iPhone 14 is not set up in accord with TalkTalk's requirements.

The outgoing mail server must have SSL ON which is the SSL switched to the right so it shows up as green.

You don't show in a screenshot the Incoming settings.

This also requires SSL ON which is the SSL switched to the right so it shows up as green. 

Authentication also by Password

Server port 993

Grateful if you'd confirm those settings are updated.

The password will not authenticate if the mailbox has been limited to webmail only access so let us know if you still get the password error and we'll request TalkTalk switch IMAP access back on to allow the iPhone to authenticate the settings I've given you.

Hi Gondola,

thank you for reaching out.

I have  checked and I can send and receive emails. 
I have an iPhone 14 running iOS 16.3 right now. 
here are my screen shots of what I set my emails up to look like, I followed it off the talk talk website. Do you need anything else at this time? 

thank you

If you saw the message from TalkTalk advising "Our records show that you are still accessing your email using unencrypted email settings..." then the email address receiving that notification has now been limited to webmail only access. It's a last resort action by TalkTalk to stop the use of email connections not secured by TLS 1.2 encryption.

So, have you updated the settings on the iPhone and any other email devices and or mail collection services? Guides below.

TalkTalk Mail webmail is secure by design when using an up to date Internet browser.

Select here:  Sign in to TalkTalk Mail

Enter your full TalkTalk Mail email address and password, select Sign in. Check that you can compose and send and receive mail sent to the same mailbox address.

If your mailbox is limited to webmail only access for both sending and receiving mail, you will be able to get access restored to email apps or email software, including mail collection services, passwords will then re-authenticate, so long as you're ready to use supported email software and secure email settings for all the ways you view emails.

We can advise on device and software compatibility with TLS 1.2 encryption and provide customer setup guides. Just let us know each mail collection service, each device, its operating system and email software including version that are in current use.

The iPhone is capable of using the secure mail settings required for TalkTalk Mail. All devices and services connecting to your mailbox must do so using secure email settings.

For a definitive check of email settings take screenshots of the incoming and outgoing server settings, image edit to obscure the first part of the email address and upload here using the Camera icon (desktop browser) or Picture icon (mobile browser) above this reply area.

When you confirm the secure settings are ready I can request TalkTalk Support to restore full access. TalkTalk Support will respond here and access will be restored usually within a couple of working days.
