I have an iPhone and an iPad. I can receive email from my myastound.net email on my iPhone but not iPad? I have used the same settings on both and can't figure out why the iPad does not receive.

Are you using POP or IMAP to receive your email? – Nathan Jul 14 '12 at 20:48

just a guess - you have it setup to delete mail from the server after it is downloaded - so that after your phone gets the new mail, it is deleted from the server, and when your iPad checks there is no longer any new mail there. Switching to IMAP will fix this, or you can tweak your POP settings. – Jason Jul 15 '12 at 0:10
