   Figure 2: Correct account settings contain a longer string in the "Server" field.
   
   

   Important: Leave all settings unchanged in this dialog.

   If you have mistyped when entering the email address or password, there will be no error message at this point, but the settings are incomplete and synchronization cannot take place. Make sure that "Server" displays a longer string of numbers and letters, followed by ".simplesyn.app".
   
   If only"simplesyn.app" is displayed in "Server", you probably have typed in a wrong email address or password. In this case, tap the back arrow and check the email address and password details.
