    Adelphia email not working. I had to restore my Ipad 2 because it was doing some really weird stuff, now i cannot get my email to work.
    I had to of course reset my email account. I used the settings that are in my iPhone expecting them to be the same. Not working on my iPad. I have spent hours trying , but nothing works. Adelphia is also a Roadrunner account.
    HELP.

  8. Phil says:

    That’s weird, if the email settings worked on your iPhone it should work on your iPad. You may want to verify your email setting on your iPad.

    Here are the mail servers for Adelphia / Roadrunner;

    Incoming (POP3) Mail Server:

    pop-server.roadrunner.com

    Outgoing (SMTP) Mail Server:

    smtp-server.roadrunner.com

    Has anyone had this problem before ? It’s driving me mad as I know it’s the correct password !!

    I just got my wife an iPad2 – she already was using an iPod. Getting the email was a problen on the iPad2. Everything was set up exactlly like the iPod. After 3+ hours of getting “Cannot get mail, the user name or password is incorrect”. “I always use the same password on everything!” It turned out her password was not what she said it was. Finally got the correct one in and WOW there was all her email.
